The People, Ex Rel. William R. Gilbert, Respondent v. Henry B. Laidlaw, County Treasurer

Summary

The Court held that money deposited under §586 of the New York Code of Criminal Procedure is deemed the defendant's money, even when furnished by a third party, and may be applied to any fine with surplus returned to the defendant. It also held that an appeal from a General Term order reversing a Special Term judgment and granting a new trial is not a motion‑calendar appeal under §192 but must be placed on the general calendar.
