Bail pending appeal was refused because the court could not, on the basis of unargued draft grounds and absent the trial record of submissions and rulings, conclude the trial judge erred in directing the jury on attempted buggery; attempt is a lawful alternative verdict that need not be pleaded and the jury could reasonably have reached the attempt verdict on the evidence presented.
