BALTIMORE, August 11.—Attor- neys for the family of Dr. Armen Greenhut, now dead convicted attacker of & 13-year-old schoolgirl patient, studied today the question of whether it is possible to take an appeal for a dead man. “There is some question if it is possible to appeal for a man who is dead,” said Edward L. Ward, Balti- more attorney. “We still have time to file an appeal, if that is possible,” said Louis J Sagner. Baltimore attorney, “for a man who is dead and who was not gentenced before his death.” Dr. Greenhut was convicted Friday in Bel Air, Md moming he was found dead in his cell there. Sentence had not that time, defense elected to file a for new trial That motion, however, was never filed Yesterday Edgar Greenhut, brother of the physici said, "It is our present intent to proceed with the appeal to vindicate his good name.” Sagner and Ward are study- ing the case Under the Maryland law, sentence must be passed before an appeal can be taken to a higher court Dr. Greenhut had testified he was treating the girl for a social disease and had denied he attacked her. Other physicians who testified for the State stated they found no germs of social disease. CONVICTION ASKED IN 1933 KIDNAPING 0'Connell Defense Sees “Plot” in Prosecution of Eight Men for Abduction.
