Opinion
June 19, 1969
Appeal from the Cayuga Special Term.
Present — Del Vecchio, J.P., Marsh, Gabrielli, Moule and Henry, JJ.
Judgment unanimously reversed, without costs, and petition dismissed. Memorandum: The denial by the Hearing Referee of the motion by petitioner's attorney to dismiss the charge that petitioner refused to submit to a chemical test to determine the alcoholic content of his blood, by reason of a Deputy Sheriff's failure to appear on the first hearing date, and the Referee's adjournment of the matter to a later date, did not constitute an abuse of discretion and his rulings were not arbitrary and capricious.
