People v. Claudio
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York
1Opinion of the Court
OPINION OF THE COURT
Weinstein, J.
Several issues with significant constitutional ramifications are raised by this appeal. The primary issue is whether a defendant’s confession to law enforcement personnel made prior to the initiation of formal judicial proceedings should be suppressed because it was the result of incompetent advice given by an attorney whom the defendant retained. We are of the opinion that where the law enforcement personnel did nothing to persuade the attorney to give the advice, the confession should not be suppressed.
