Lee Long, Appellant v. State of New York, Respondent

Summary

The New York Court of Appeals affirmed the dismissal of Lee Long's claim for unjust conviction and imprisonment, holding that the statutory requirements of Court of Claims Act § 8‑b(3)(b)(ii) are satisfied when the judgment is vacated on an enumerated ground, even if the indictment dismissal is based on a different provision. The court also found the claim timely and affirmed the lower courts' rulings on the verification requirement.
