The People of the State of New York v. Anthony Joseph Ramistella

Summary

The New York Court of Appeals reversed the convictions of Anthony Joseph Ramistella, holding that the trial court erred by refusing a limiting jury instruction on a co‑defendant's confession, by barring cross‑examination about the confidential motor number, and by allowing guilty verdicts on two overlapping larceny statutes. A new trial was ordered with proper instructions and evidentiary rights restored.
