Phillip W. Haherman, Jr., of counsel [Thomas W. A. Crowe with him on the brief; Paul Windels, Corporation Counsel], for the appellant.
Sydney R. Snitkin of counsel [Howard J. Gibbs with him on the brief], for the respondents.
Payment to the petitioners of $1,000 was ample compensation for the services rendered. There was no trial or trials, and the plea of guilty disposed of both indictments.
It follows, therefore, that the order appealed from should be reversed, with twenty dollars costs and disbursements, and the motion denied.
Present — Martin, P. J., O’Malley, Glennon, Dore and Cohn, JJ.
