People v. Hatch

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Fourth Department
Oct 18, 1974
46 A.D.2d 721 (N.Y. App. Div. 1974)

Opinion

October 18, 1974

Present — Marsh, P.J., Cardamone, Simons, Goldman and Del Vecchio, JJ.


Motion for change of venue denied. Memorandum: We conclude that petitioner-defendant has not on this application met his burden of demonstrating that there is "reasonable cause to believe that a fair and impartial trial cannot be had" in Oneida County (CPL 230.20, subd. 2). If it develops during the voir dire that a fair and impartial jury cannot be drawn an appropriate application may then be made. The relief requested in the application before us now is premature (see People v. DiPiazza, 24 N.Y.2d 342; People v. Sekou, 45 A.D.2d 982).
