The People of the State of New York, Respondent v. Max Hipple, Appellant

Summary

The New York Court of Appeals affirmed Max Hipple's conviction for disorderly conduct under Penal Law §722(3). The Court held that the statutory requirement that the conduct occur "on a public street" is satisfied by the defendant's presence in the doorway of a business building, and that a complaint need not state the precise name of the offense.
