Head Matter:
The People of the State of New York, Respondent v. Angelo Visconti, Appellant.

Opinion:
Defendant appeals from a judgment of the Court of Special Sessions of the City of New York, Borough of Brooklyn [County of Kings], convicting him of the crime of book-making (Penal Law, § 986). Judgment of conviction reversed on the law, the information dismissed, and bail exonerated, on the ground that the evidence was not sufficient to warrant the finding of guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
