New York Court of Appeals

The People of the State of New York v. Robert White

February 17, 1956309 N.Y. 636

Summary

The New York Court of Appeals affirmed the Appellate Division's denial of a hearing on the defendant's alleged fraud claims, holding that the allegations were unsupported by the record and did not create a due‑process right to a trial. Justice Desmond dissented, arguing that the defendant should be remitted for a trial on his sworn allegations.
