People v. Belin

Opinion of the Court

Concur: Judges Scileppi, Bergan, Jasen and Gibson. Chief Judge Fuld and Judges Burke and Breitel dissent and vote to reverse and dismiss the information in the following memorandum: The interior corridor in this former apartment in a multiple dwelling was not a public way but one used exclusively by the room tenants and their licensees. Consequently, the police officer was not entitled to enter and the discoveries he made as a result of such entry did not produce admissible evidence.
