Description

This is an application for leave to appeal from a redetermination of defective delinquency. In the first determination in 1961, from which no application for leave to appeal was filed, the applicant availed himself of his statutory right to examination by a private psychiatrist and chose Dr. Lerner. However, Dr. Lerner reported that while not psychotic or a definite mental defective, the patient was emotionally unstable, with criminal propensities and to be classified as a defective delinquent in accordance with the State law. Dr. Boslow, the Director of Patuxent, also found him to be a defective delinquent. On redetermination in September, 1963, Dr. Lerner reported that he thought the patient sufficiently recovered to be no longer a danger to himself or others, but Dr. Boslow read from and commented upon a staff report prepared as a result of a staff conference held three days before the hearing. Dr. Boslow recognized that the patient had improved, but recommended that he be retained at Patuxent. He stated that he felt the applicant would get into difficulty if released, and ""quickly lapse * * * [into] anti-social behavior."" He testified also that the patient ""still displays a psychopathic reaction."" Judge Byrnes, who heard the case without a jury, found him to be a defective delinquent and recommitted him to Patuxent.
