People v. Parker

Opinion

*670 Order modified in accordance with the following memorandum, and, as so modified, affirmed: Although we find the evidence of harassment sufficient to establish the defendant’s guilt of that violation beyond a reasonable doubt, we conclude that her conviction for attempted resisting arrest should be reversed, the charge dismissed and the fine remitted on the ground that, as candidly and forthrightly conceded by the District Attorney, the People failed to prove that the arrest in question was authorized as is required by section 205.30 of the Penal Law.

Concur: Chief Judge Fuld and Judges Burke, Breitel, Jasen, Gabrielli, Jones and Wachtler.
