March 25, 1985


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Alexander A. Alarid and Sidney H. Zuckerman (Morgan Kennedy on the brief), for appellant.

John J. Santucci, District Attorney (Andrew Zwerling of counsel), for respondent.

MOLLEN, P. J., TITONE and THOMPSON, JJ., concur.


LAZER, J.

The primary issue is the constitutional propriety of defendant's detention and search in the customs area at Kennedy Airport after her arrival on an international flight. Also contested is New York's right to prosecute the defendant following her arrest by Federal authorities before she had cleared customs. We conclude the judgment of conviction should stand.
