DAVIS v. STATE OF NEW YORK


124 A.D.2d 420 (1986)

Bradley B. Davis, Respondent, v. State of New York, Appellant

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

October 30, 1986


Yesawich, Jr., J.

Claimant was awarded $7,500 in damages for his arrest and detention by the State Police. It is the State's contention on appeal that claimant was arrested pursuant to a facially valid warrant issued by a court of competent jurisdiction and that since claimant failed to establish the State Police intentionally falsified material facts to procure issuance of the warrant, a prima facie case of false arrest was not made out. We agree.
