    The Supreme Court granted Arnold McClellan's petition to proceed in forma pauperis and his petition for a writ of certiorari to appeal the decision of the District Court of Appeal of California, Second Appellate District. The Court vacated the lower court's judgment and remanded the case for reconsideration in light of the Court's recent decision in Chapman v. State of California, which addressed the issue of whether a constitutional error can be considered harmless. Justice Stewart would have granted certiorari and reversed the judgment himself for the reasons given in his concurring opinion in Chapman.
