PEOPLE v. GUZMAN


89 A.D.2d 14 (1982)

The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v. Guillermo Guzman, Appellant

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

September 27, 1982


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

William E. Hellerstein (Charlene Terzian Hyler and Elaine T. Stogel of counsel), for appellant.

Elizabeth Holtzman, District Attorney (Holly L. Halper and Allan P. Root of counsel), for respondent.

MOLLEN, P. J., TITONE, MANGANO and GIBBONS, JJ., concur.


Per Curiam.

The paramount question on this appeal is whether defendant's indictment should be dismissed on the ground that alleged constitutional and statutory violations in the Kings County Grand Jury selection process caused an underrepresentation of Hispanics in the Grand Jury pool and in the Grand Jury that indicted him. In our view, the question must be answered in the negative, and the judgment of conviction must be affirmed.
