New York Court of Appeals, 1967

People v. Nicholson

People v. Nicholson
New York Court of Appeals · Decided June 1, 1967
19 N.Y.2d 983; 228 N.E.2d 696; 281 N.Y.S.2d 528; 1967 N.Y. LEXIS 1397

People v. Nicholson

Opinion of the Court

Judgment affirmed in a memorandum. As reflected by the colloquy which the Trial Judge had with the defendant and his attorney at the time of sentence, the defendant, although given an opportunity to withdraw his plea of guilty to possession of a dangerous weapon, declined to do so. Accordingly, his reliance on our decision in People v. Serrano (15 N Y 2d 304) and People v. Seaton (19 N Y 2d 404) is misplaced.

Concur: Chief Judge Fuld and Judges Van Vookhis, Burke, Scileppi, Bergan and Keating. Taking no part: Judge Breitel.
