People v. Jones

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Fourth Department
Apr 14, 1989
149 A.D.2d 915 (N.Y. App. Div. 1989)

Opinion

April 14, 1989

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Erie County, Flynn, Jr., J.

Present — Callahan, J.P., Doerr, Denman, Lawton and Davis, JJ.


Motion to dismiss appeal denied. Judgment unanimously reversed on the law and matter remitted to Supreme Court, Erie County, for further proceedings on the indictment. Memorandum: A conclusory assertion that statements were obtained from defendant in violation of his statutory and constitutional rights amounts to a claim that the statement was "involuntarily made" (CPL 60.45 [b] [ii]), and the trial court erred in denying defendant's motion to suppress without conducting a Huntley hearing (CPL 710.20; 710.60 [3] [b]; People v. Weaver, 49 N.Y.2d 1012; People v. Knights, 124 A.D.2d 935).
