New York Court of Appeals
The Village of Carthage, Respondent v. Carlos L. Frederick, Appellant
October 7, 1890122 N.Y. 268
Summary
The Court affirmed the lower court's judgment, holding that the Village of Carthage's ordinance requiring owners to remove snow and ice from sidewalks within a set time is a valid exercise of police power and does not constitute an unconstitutional taking of private property.
