Supreme Court of Connecticut, 1970

State v. Ball

State v. Ball
Supreme Court of Connecticut · Decided January 21, 1970
159 Conn. 603; 267 A.2d 441

State v. Ball

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

A decisive issue on these appeals is the legality of the search of an automobile and the seizure of liquor discovered during the search. The court failed to make a finding as to the facts on which it based its conclusion that the search and the seizure were valid. The record is therefore inadequate for a determination of the legality of the search and seizure.

There is error in each case, the judgments are set aside and a new trial is ordered in each case.
