1997First, as the trial court noted, there were additional requirements of the Williams test for court closure that defendant could not satisfy, including demonstrating that an open court would result in a "realistic likelihood of prejudice to a fair trial," id. at 63 , 459 A. 2d 641 , and that there were no reasonable alternatives to court closure.

Williams v. Page green

1992At best, Williams' claim is that although he committed the acts charged, he was insane at the time and could not be found guilty of the necessary criminal intent to justify conviction of a crime. [ Id. at 367, 389 A. 2d 1012 (emphasis added).] In the instant case, as in Williams, the only reason for the favorable determination was the lack of the requisite criminal intent.
