New York Court of Appeals
The People of the State of New York v. James Boulware
July 7, 197129 N.Y.2d 135
Summary
The Court affirmed the conviction, holding that the trial judge did not abuse discretion by limiting defense counsel's voir dire questions to matters of juror qualifications and bias, and may preclude inquiries about legal concepts. The opinion emphasizes the trial judge's broad discretion in conducting voir dire and rejects the defendant's claims of error.
