New York Court of Appeals July 2, 1968 (People v. Simons)

lead-opinion

Scileppi, J.

The chief question posed by this appeal is whether, under the particular circumstances of this case, the issuance of a parole warrant commenced a ‘ ‘ judicial proceeding ” thereby entitling the parole violator (the defendant Simons) to the presence of counsel during any interrogation by law enforcement officials.
