Baldwin v. Valentine

260 A.D. 906 Court N.Y. App. Div. Decision date 1940-11-01 English

Contents

Majority

p. 906
In the Matter of the Application of Joseph Clark Baldwin, Petitioner, Respondent, for an Order against Lewis J. Valentine, as Police Commissioner of the City of New York, Appellant.

Order unanimously affirmed, with twenty dollars costs and disbursements. The refusal of the commissioner to grant a permit subject to the restrictions offered at the time the application was made constitutes an abuse of discretion and justifies the order appealed from. Present — Martin, P. J., Townley, Untermyer, Cohn and Callahan, JJ.
