People v. Nichols

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Fourth Department
Oct 1, 1941
262 App. Div. 1062 (N.Y. App. Div. 1941)

Opinion

October 1, 1941.

Present — Crosby, P.J., Cunningham, Dowling, Harris and McCurn, JJ.


Judgment of conviction and order affirmed.


The instruction of the court that the testimony of the little girl was sufficient to establish the additional proof required by section 395 of the Code of Criminal Procedure was material error because the little girl, although put on the stand, testified to nothing in reference to the matters in issue. (The judgment convicts defendant of the crime of assault, second degree. The order denies a motion for a new trial.)
