## Opinion text

GALLAGHER, Associate Judge
(concurring) :
This is still another instance where, as noted in the court’s opinion in this case, there apparently has not been compliance with Metropolitan Police General Order Series 601, No. 2. See, e.g., Savage v. United States, D.C.App., 313 A.2d 880 (1974); Banks v. United States, D.C.App., 305 A.2d 256 (1973).
As stated in Banks v. United States, supra at 259 (Gallagher, J., concurring) the government gave us to understand that potentially discoverable material would be preserved in view of the terms of the General Order. That was more than a year ago. I would assume the government is taking steps to effectuate general compliance.
