## Opinion text

'Carter, J.,
concurring in result.
I agree with the result in this case. I do not agree with that part of the opinion which supports the result because there was substantial compliance with the American Bar Association standards relating to pleas of guilty. The American Bar Association performs many useful services for the bench and bar, but its work does not rise to the status of legislative acts or judicial holdings. I submit that its committee reports, although finally approved by it, are not authoritative in declaring the law of this state. It is the inference that its standards relating to pleas of guilty are required to be foEowed that gives rise to this concurrence.
Newton, J., joins in this concurrence.
