People v. Knowles

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Apr 6, 1970
34 A.D.2d 652 (N.Y. App. Div. 1970)

Opinion

April 6, 1970


In a coram nobis proceeding, defendant appeals from an order of the Supreme Court, Kings County, entered January 5, 1967, which denied the application after a hearing. Order affirmed. In our opinion, the Criminal Term properly confined the hearing to the sole question of pretrial publicity ( People v. Sepos, 16 N.Y.2d 662) and, as to that, appellant failed to demonstrate facts sufficient to warrant the granting of the relief sought (cf. People v. Di Piazza, 24 N.Y.2d 342; compare People v. Ryan, 28 A.D.2d 916, with People v. Santana, 31 A.D.2d 904, revd. 25 N.Y.2d 827). Christ, Acting P.J., Rabin, Hopkins, Munder and Latham, JJ., concur.
