Court of Appeals of New York


The People v. Hayes, 79

Conviction and sentencing of defendant for second degree assault and weapon possession is upheld because failure of the police to interview witnesses after overhearing two potentially exculpatory statements did not constitute a Brady violation, and where court, as a permissible exercise of discretion, properly precluded defendant from challenging the adequacy of the police investigation during cross-examination.
