The Court refused the certificate because the contention that an instruction by a supervising officer who lacked reasonable belief necessarily taints an arrest by a subordinate is unsustainable; legality of arrest depends on the arresting officer's reasonable belief, a fact question tied to findings of this Court, and therefore the issues are not pure points of law of great and general public importance suitable for certification under section 32(2).
