People v. Sanger

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Jul 1, 1917
179 App. Div. 939 (N.Y. App. Div. 1917)

Opinion

July, 1917.


Judgment of conviction of the Court of Special Sessions affirmed. The considerations which appellant urges against the wisdom and justice of section 1142 of the Penal Law, as to preventing conception, are for the Legislature rather than for this court. There is no doubt of the constitutional power to stop public "clinics" where such articles are furnished and given out in the manner here shown. Jenks, P.J., Thomas, Mills, Putnam and Blackmar, JJ., concurred.
