Matter of Gentile v. Levy

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, First Department
Dec 8, 1988
145 A.D.2d 330 (N.Y. App. Div. 1988)

Opinion

December 8, 1988


Although the writ does not lie, we note that no New York appellate court has approved the submission of an entire written charge to a jury and, here, where the issue is novel and both sides object, it is not for a trial court to undertake such action. It ill behooves a court at nisi prius to force an issue, especially one of questionable propriety.

Concur — Sullivan, J.P., Carro, Milonas, Rosenberger and Smith, JJ.
