PEOPLE v. KIRKLAND

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Fourth Department.
Dec 22, 1995

Judgment reversed on the law, motion to preclude identification evidence granted and new trial granted. Memorandum: The CPL 710.30 notice served upon defendant failed to apprise him of the time, place and manner in which the identification of defendant was made (see, People v Lopez, 84 N.Y.2d 425, 428). That defect could not be cured by discovery provided the day after arraignment (see, People v Lopez, supra, at 428-429; People v Scott, 222 A.D.2d 1004 [decided herewith]). Furthermore, defendant did not waive his right to preclusion by subsequently moving for suppression of the identification testimony or by participating in the Wade hearing (see, People v Merrill, 212 A.D.2d 987, lv granted 87 N.Y.2d 1027; People v Scott, supra).

Green, J.P., Pine and Boehm, JJ., concur; Wesley and Balio, JJ., concur on constraint of People v Merrill ( 212 A.D.2d 987, lv granted 87 N.Y.2d 1027).
