Description
The defendants contentions on this appeal are that the trial court erred: (1) In requiring the defendant to plead to the indictment and to stand trial thereon; (2) in admitting into evidence, over objection, the testimony of Nurse Bass, Attendant Williams and Dr. Parmelee concerning statements made by the defendant to them at the Wayne Memorial Hospital; (3) in denying the defendants motion for a directed verdict of not guilty; and (4) in its instructions to the jury concerning insanity as a complete defense to the charges and in its failure to instruct the jury concerning the defendants mental condition with reference to the matters of premeditation and deliberation. In all of these, the crucial factor is the defendants mental capacity. The test of sufficient mental capacity in each of these areas is different from the test to be applied in the other three.
