People v. Nicolia (287 N.Y. 398, 1942)

Per Curiam.

It was error to admit evidence of insurance policies owned by the defendant’s uncle covering both the house which was the subject of the fire and an adjoining house and the furniture therein, when there was no claim that there was any complicity on the uncle’s part in the crime charged against the defendant.

The judgments should be reversed and anew trial ordered.

Lehman, Ch. J., Loughran, Finch, Rippey, Lewis, Conway and Desmond, JJ., concur.

Judgments reversed, etc.
