PEOPLE v. WEIXEL

Court of Appeals of the State of New York.
Apr 7, 1971

Judgment reversed and the information dismissed on the ground that the crime of menacing of which the defendants were convicted did not constitute a lesser degree of any one of the crimes — riot (Penal Law, § 240.05), reckless endangerment (§ 120.20) and resisting arrest (§ 205. 30) — with which they had been charged and on which they had been put to trial (see People v. Moyer, 27 N.Y.2d 252).

Concur: Chief Judge FULD and Judges BURKE, SCILEPPI, BERGAN, BREITEL, JASEN and GIBSON.
