EA cenmeaieaee -= | a4 | 606—OPINION we ee 10 ILLINOIS v. ALLEN befits a judge. Even in holding that the trial judge had erred, the Court of Appeals praised his “commendable patience under severe provocation.” We do not hold that removing this defendant from his own trial was the only way the I}inois judge could have constitutionally solved the problem he had. We do hold, however, that there is nothing whatever in this record to show that the judge did not act completely within his discretion. Deplorable as it is to remove a man from his own trial, even for a short time, we hold that the judge did not commit legal error in doing what he did. The judgment of the Court of Appeals is Reversed.
