Description
In these cases, we consider the extent to which the principles of accessorial liability and constructive possession may support a finding that evidence presented to a Grand Jury is legally sufficient to establish a prima facie case of criminal possession of a controlled substance. In both cases the trial courts dismissal of counts of the indictments charging criminal possession of a controlled substance were affirmed by the Appellate Division. The People were granted leave to appeal in each case by a Judge of this Court. The legal principles we apply are the same in both cases, but the significantly different factual scenarios require an affirmance in People v Manini and a reversal in People v Fuente.
