New York Court of Appeals
The People of the State of New York, Respondent v. Norman McBride, Appellant
April 29, 201014 N.Y.3d 440
Summary
The New York Court of Appeals affirmed the Appellate Division, holding that exigent circumstances justified the warrantless entry into the defendant's home, that the seizure of clothing in plain view was lawful, and that the identification lineup was not unduly suggestive. The dissent argued the police should have obtained a warrant and that the entry violated Payton.
