(AP) Convicted murderer Jack Potts won a stay of execution Saturday from a federal appeals court panel, just three days before he was scheduled to die in Georgias electric chair. It was the second stay won by Potts this month in his appeals. A three-judg- e panel of the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals issued the stay pending a hearing on an emergency appeal filed Friday by Potts attorneys. Joan Perkins, a clerk at the appeals court, said her office had been instructed to expedite the appeal. On the eve of Potts scheduled June 5 execution, U.S. District Judge William C. O'Kelley of Atlanta issued a stay after Potts agreed at the last minute to renew the appeal he abandoned last fall. Renounces Appeal O'Kelley vacated that stay, however, when Potts appeared at a hearing June 10 to renounce his appeal. On Thursday, OKelley balked at reinstating the stay after the condemned man changed his mind agam and resumed his appeal. Potts, 35, received word of the stay from Diane Nicholson, a former girlfriend who was visiting him at the Georgia Diagnostic and Classification Center near here. Mrs. Nicholson said Potts was "elated" and Jumped up and hugged her when he heard the news Potts was moved Saturday morning to a siecial holding cell in the newly constructed death house at the Jackson prison to begin a death watch" prior to the scheduled execution Prison spokeswoman Sira Englade said the "death watch would continue until the Georgia attorney generals office had an opportunity to review the appellate court's decision. Georgia Attorney General Arthur Bolton said his staff would appeal the stay immediately to the U.S. Supreme Court and ask the high court to order the execution carried out Tuesday as scheduled. "I feel the people of Georgia are entitled to hae this matter passed on by the highest court of the land before having it further delayed." he said in a statement Issued by his office. Marty Potts, wife of Potts' brother John, said the execution has liven "mentally and physically destroying the family."

The former bricklayer set the stage for his execution last fall when he fired his attorneys, abandoned his appeal and announced his conversion to Catholicism In a bearing Thursday before OKelley, Tom West, an attorney representing Potts, attributed the condemned man's erratic behavor to fatigue and fear of reprisal by prison personnel.
