PEOPLE v. HUGHES
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department.
Aug 1, 1977
Appeal by defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Queens County, rendered May 3, 1974, convicting him of criminal possession of a dangerous drug in the third degree, after a nonjury trial, and imposing sentence. Judgment reversed, on the law and the facts, and indictment dismissed. In our opinion, defendant's guilt was not established beyond a reasonable doubt and the testimony of the arresting officer was tailored to meet the exigencies in the situation. Hopkins, J.P., Shapiro, Suozzi and Mollen, JJ., concur.
