New York Court of Appeals
The People of the State of New York v. Humberto Esajerre
December 20, 197435 N.Y.2d 463
Summary
The Court affirmed the lower court's order, holding that the defendant's waiver of a determination on his motion to suppress was valid and not invalid as a matter of law. The waiver was found to be knowing, intelligent, and made after adequate counsel consultation, and the condition of withdrawing the motion in exchange for a reduced plea was deemed reasonable.
