Majority

The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v. Robert Reatz, Appellant.
Argued April 21, 1965;
decided May 20, 1965.
Bernard E. Gegan for appellant.
Aaron E. Koota, District Attorney (William I. Siegel of counsel), for respondent.

Judgment modified to the extent of directing a hearing on the issue of the voluntariness of defendant’s confession and, as so modified, affirmed. Case remitted to Supreme Court, Kings County, for such hearing (People v. Huntley, 15 N Y 2d 72 ). The record before us fails to establish defendant’s claim that the District Attorney’s opening consisted only of a reading of the indictment. No opinion.

Concur: Chief Judge Desmond and Judges Dye, Fuld, Van Voorhis, Burke, Scileppi and Bergan.
