People v. Murray
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York · Decided January 29, 1985
107 A.D.2d 1090; 486 N.Y.S.2d 712; 1985 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 42919
People v. Murray

Opinion of the Court

— Motion to change venue of trial of indictment from Onondaga County denied. Memorandum: We conclude that defendant has not on this application met his burden of demonstrating that there is “reasonable cause to believe that a fair and impartial trial cannot be had” in Onondaga County (CPL 230.20, subd 2). If it develops during the voir dire that a fair and impartial jury cannot be drawn, an appropriate application may then be made. The relief requested in the application before us now is premature (see People v DiPiazza, 24 NY2d 342; People v Hatch, 46 AD2d 721; People v Sekou, 45 AD2d 982, app dsmd 35 NY2d 844). Present — Dillon, P. J., Denman, Boomer, Green and O’Donnell, JJ. (Order entered Jan. 25, 1985.)
