PEOPLE v. SILEO

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department.
May 1, 1922

Judgment of conviction by the County Court of Kings county and order denying motion for a new trial reversed upon the law, and a new trial ordered. We think the court erred in charging as a matter of law that the complaining witness was not an accomplice. Whether he was an accomplice or not depended upon whether there was a voluntary submission to the act on his part, and this was a question of fact. Blackmar, P.J., Kelly, Manning, Kelby and Young, JJ., concur.
