Convicted by a jury and sentenced for assault with intent to rob and steal being armed, * defendant appeals on the basis of three alleged reversible errors.
Defendant was arraigned on the warrant January 12, 1967, at which time his preliminary examination was set for January 27, 1967. Defendant contends this violated the mandatory requirement of MCLA § 766.4 (Stat Ann 1954 Eev § 28.922) that examination be set not exceeding ten days after arraignment on the warrant, and that this violation constitutes reversible error.
There is nothing in the record to indicate why the magistrate set the preliminary examination 15 days after defendant was arraigned on the warrant. Failure to comply with the statutory ten-day requirement above mentioned was error, hut it was a procedural error and it is not reversible error unless a miscarriage of justice resulted from it.
