WHITE, J., Concurring Opinion

SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES


435 U.S. 223

Ballew v. Georgia

CERTIORARI TO THE COURT OF APPEALS OF GEORGIA


No. 76-761 Argued: November 1, 1977 --- Decided: March 21, 1978

MR. JUSTICE WHITE, concurring in the judgment.

Agreeing that a jury of fewer than six persons would fail to represent the sense of the community, and hence not satisfy the fair cross-section requirement of the Sixth and Fourteenth Amendments, I concur in the judgment of reversal.
