People v. Reade

New York Court of Appeals
People v. Reade, 29 N.Y.2d 493 (N.Y. 1971)
272 N.E.2d 481; 323 N.Y.S.2d 969; 1971 N.Y. LEXIS 1227

People v. Reade

Opinion of the Court

Judgment reversed and a new trial ordered in the following memorandum: The failure of the trial court to assist the defendant, who was defending pro se, in producing at the trial the person to whom the defendant initially confessed, was, as the District Attorney most commendably acknowledges, error justifying reversal (People v. Wells, 272 N. Y. 215).

Concur: Chief Judge Full and Judges Burke, Scileppi, Bergan, Breitel, Jasen and Gibson.
