New York Supreme Court, 1809

People v. Parker

People v. Parker
New York Supreme Court · Decided August 15, 1809
4 Johns. 424
People v. Parker

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

The store was not within the curtelage, as there was no fence or yard, enclosing, the dwelling-house and store, so as to bring them within one enclosure. This brings the case within that of the King v. Garland, (Leach, 130.) and distinguishes it from Gibson’s case, (Leach, 287.) The prisoner must be discharged.

Prisoner discharge.
