GRAND JURY EVIDENCE WAS LEGALLY SUFFICIENT IN THIS AGGRAVATED UNLICENSED OPERATION CASE; THE INDICTMENT SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN DISMISSED (THIRD DEPT).

The Third Department, reversing County Court, determined, on the People’s appeal, the evidence presented to the grand jury was legally sufficient to support the charged crimes (aggravated unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle). One issue was whether the ID defendant showed to the officer at the traffic stop was sufficient to connect the defendant to the Department of Motor Vehicles abstract:

In view of defendant’s admission to the police officer during the stop that he did not have a driver’s license, as well as the information in the certified abstract from the Department of Motor Vehicles, the evidence was legally sufficient to support the charges in the indictment … . Furthermore, by producing the identification card to the police officer, defendant adopted the information therein, including his date of birth … . Accordingly, contrary to defendant’s assertion … , there was admissible evidence connecting defendant to the abstract. Because the record discloses that the evidence before the grand jury was legally sufficient to support the charged crimes, the indictment must be reinstated … . People v Reid, 2020 NY Slip Op 03827, Third Dept 7-9-20
