People v. Beltrand

Appellate Terms of the Supreme Court of New York · Decided July 8, 1971

67 Misc. 2d 324; 324 N.Y.S.2d 477; 1971 N.Y. Misc. LEXIS 1462

Counsel

Frank S. Hogan, District Attorney (Michael R. Juviler and Herman Kaufman of counsel), for appellant. Louis J. Lefkowitz, Attorney-General (Samuel A. Hirshowitz and Robert 8. Hammer of counsel), for intervenor-appellant. Robert Kasanof and Stanley Neustadter for respondent.

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

There was no proof, on the preliminary hearing, of loitering by defendant for any appreciable period of time. Hence, the testimony was insufficient factually to establish the conjunctive elements of subdivision 6 of section 240.35 of the Penal Law. It is therefore unnecessary to deal with defendant’s argument that the statute is unconstitutional (People v. Schanbarger, 24 N Y 2d 288; Rescue Army v. Municipal Ct., 331 U. S. 549, 569).

The order should be affirmed.

Concur — Lupiaho, J. P., Markowitz and Gold, JJ.

Order affirmed.
