THE FACTUAL ALLEGATIONS IN THIS COMMON LAW DRIVING WHILE INTOXICATED CASE WERE SUFFICIENT TO ALLEGE DEFENDANT WAS THE OPERATOR OF THE VEHICLE, APPELLATE TERM REVERSED (CT APP).

The Court of Appeals, reversing the Appellate Term, determined the “factual allegations in the accusatory instrument were sufficient to support the inference that defendant was the operator of the vehicle involved in the accident and, thus, Appellate Term erroneously dismissed the accusatory instrument on that ground.” The facts of the case were not described. The Appellate Term decision is: People v Esposito (Monique) 2018 NY Slip Op 28245 Decided on August 3, 2018 Appellate Term, 2nd Department. People v Esposito, 2019 NY Slip Op 04448, CtApp 6-6-19
