General SummaryThis case is from a collection containing the full text of over 16,000 Supreme Court cases from 1793 to the present. The body of Supreme Court decisions are, effectively, the final interpretation of the Constitution. Only an amendment to the Constitution can permanently overturn an interpretation and this has happened only four times in American history.
Piccirillo v. New York, 400 U.S. 548 (1971)
Piccirillo v. New York No. 97 Argued November 9, 1970 Decided January 25, 1971 400 U.S. 548
CERTIORARI TO THE COURT OF APPEALS OF NEW YORK
Syllabus
Writ of certiorari, granted to resolve question whether "transactional," rather than "use," immunity is constitutionally required to compel a witness to testify before a New York grand jury, is dismissed as improvidently granted in light of another decision by highest state court holding that transactional immunity is required in New York, and that its earlier decision in the instant case may have rested on that premise.
24 N.Y.2d 598, 249 N.E.2d 412, certiorari dismissed.
