People v. . Florina

134 N.E. 565 | NY | 1921

In view of the contradictions and uncertainties in the narratives of the witnesses for the prosecution, we think the ends of justice will be promoted if another jury is given the opportunity to determine the defendants' guilt or innocence.

The judgment of conviction should be reversed, and a new trial ordered.

HISCOCK, Ch. J., HOGAN, CARDOZO, McLAUGHLIN, CRANE and ANDREWS, JJ., concur; POUND, J., absent.

Judgment of conviction reversed, etc.
