PEOPLE v. ALLEN

6 Misc.3d 258 (2004)

788 N.Y.S.2d 820

THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, Plaintiff, v. CHRISTOPHER ALLEN, Defendant.

Supreme Court, Bronx County.

November 9, 2004

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Bronx Defenders (Robin G. Steinberg and Emma Ketteringham of counsel), for defendant.

Robert T. Johnson, District Attorney (Lissette G. Fernandez of counsel), for plaintiff.

OPINION OF THE COURT

DIANE KIESEL, J.

The defendant was imprisoned by a Family Court Judge for contempt. The contemptuous behavior was a series of telephone calls made to his estranged wife in violation of that Judge's temporary order of protection. The issue before this court is whether the defendant can now be prosecuted criminally for aggravated harassment based on that behavior without triggering double jeopardy.
