New York Court of Appeals

The People of the State of New York, Respondent v. Antonio Tevaha, Appellant

October 20, 199484 N.Y.2d 879

Summary

The Court of Appeals affirmed the Appellate Division's order, holding that the defendant's error was not preserved because counsel offered only a general objection to the officer's testimony. The court emphasized that an objection must specify the basis of the error to be preserved for appellate review.
