PEOPLE of the State of New York, respondents, v. Julius HARRIS, appellant.
(Supreme Court, Appellate Division, Second Department.
December 17, 1915.)

There is no competent evidence that the certificate or transcript or affidavit is false or forged, so as to bring the case within the Penal Law (Consol. Laws, c. 40), or that it is purchased, fraudulently issued, counterfeited or materially altered, so as to bring it within the Public Health Law (Con-sol. Laws, c. 45). Judgment of conviction of the County Court of Westchester County reversed, and a new trial ordered. Jenks, P. J., and Thomas, Stapleton, Rich, and Putnam, JJ., concur.
