““It is the well-established policy of our law that a person convicted of murder in the first degree should not be denied an opportunity to appeal, and the fact that he is without resources should not be allowed to deprive him of it. State v. Zukauskas [ 132 Conn. 450, 452 , 45 A.2d 289 ]; State v. Klein, [ 95 Conn. 451, 453 , 112 A. 524 (1920) ]. This policy applies to cases in ivhich the sentence is life imprisonment * * * as xoell as to cases in which the death penalty is imposed.” (Emphasis added.)”
