PEOPLE v. DEGBRINA


10 A.D.2d 646 (1960)

The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v. Leo Degbrina, Appellant

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York, Second Department.

February 23, 1960


Order unanimously affirmed.

On the facts presented by this record, appellant was not entitled to relief even if it be assumed that he was coerced into making a confession (People v. De Barros, 1 A.D. 845). Neither is relief warranted because of the claim that appellant was mentally incompetent at the time of plea and sentence. (Cf. People v. Smyth, 3 N.Y.2d 184; People v. Flora, 281 App. Div. 946, affd.
