Opinion
April 8, 1965
Appeal from the Monroe Family Court.
Present — Williams, P.J., Bastow, Goldman, Henry and Del Vecchio, JJ.
Order unanimously reversed and a new trial granted. Memorandum: The determination of the Trial Judge was contrary to the weight of the evidence. Further, in this filiation proceeding the testimony, construed most favorably to the complainant, discloses that the period of gestation falls short of the generally accepted 280 days. One version of the complainant's testimony would make the period of gestation far short of 280 days. Nevertheless, there was no medical testimony to support either computation, and without it we cannot properly pass upon the question of paternity.
