People v. McNally

Court of Appeals of the State of New York
Mar 23, 1983
448 N.E.2d 1351 (N.Y. 1983)

Opinion

Decided March 23, 1983

Appeal from the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court in the Second Judicial Department, BERNARD DUBIN, J.

John J. Santucci, District Attorney ( Merri Turk Lasky of counsel), for appellant.

R. Bertil Peterson for respondent.


MEMORANDUM.

The appeal should be dismissed. Although the order of the Appellate Division recites that the determination in that court was "on the law," a review of the opinion rendered by that court reveals that its disposition was predicated, at least in part, upon factual findings concerning probable cause to arrest and when the arrest actually occurred. Because the determination was not "on the law alone or upon the law and such facts which, but for the determination of law, would not have led to reversal" (CPL 450.90, subd 2, par [a]), this appeal does not lie.

Chief Judge COOKE and Judges JASEN, JONES, WACHTLER, FUCHSBERG, MEYER and SIMONS concur.

On review of submissions pursuant to rule 500.2 (b) of the Rules of the Court of Appeals (22 N.Y.CRR 500.2 [g]), appeal dismissed in a memorandum.
