Description
The question on this appeal is whether a finding that a criminal defendant has received actual notice of the date for trial and has nonetheless voluntarily failed to appear is sufficient, as a matter of law, to permit the court to proceed to try the defendant in absentia. The courts below held this finding sufficient to establish an implicit relinquishment of a defendants right to be present at trial. We disagree and reverse.
