New York Court of Appeals
The People of the State of New York, Respondent v. Virgil Jackson, Appellant
November 27, 1888111 N.Y. 362
Summary
The Court of Appeals affirmed the murder conviction, holding that the trial court correctly denied a continuance, properly exercised discretion in replacing the jury panel, found the indictment date variance immaterial, properly admitted the photograph evidence, correctly excluded the threat evidence, and concluded the jury's finding of premeditation was supported by the record.
