THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, Respondent, v. NATHANIEL MATHERSON, Appellant.

Judgment affirmed. The seizure of evidence upon which the conviction is based was an incident to a lawful arrest on sufficient cause in a place open to public access. Therefore, the fact a search warrant was defective, as the People concede, because it was a general warrant (cf. Marcus v. Search Warrant, 367 U.S. 717; Stanford v. Texas, 379 U.S. 476) did not preclude the reception in evidence of exhibits seized as an incident to the arrest.

Concur: Chief Judge DESMOND and Judges DYE, FULD, VAN VOORHIS, BURKE, SCILEPPI and BERGAN.
