People v. Yamerdo

The fact that the defendant is the holder of a liquor tax certificate and would suffer substantial pecuniary loss through a conviction of the misdemeanor charged affords sufficient ground for a direction that the charge should be prosecuted by indictment. I have so held upon applications of this character in the past, and find no reason for altering my views.

See People v. Stewart, N. Y. L. Journal, July 30, 1900.

Motions granted.
