The People of the State of New York ex rel. Julius M. Klein, Sr., Appellant, v. Arthur E. Krueger, as Warden of Nassau County Jail, Respondent.

Opinion:
Appeal by relator from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Nassau County, dated July 31, 1969, dismissing his writ of habeas corpus. Judgment reversed, on the law and in the exercise of discretion, and application granted to the extent that bail is fixed in the amount of $125,000. In our opinion it was an abuse of discretion to refuse to fix bail in any amount. Beldóck, P. J., Brennan, Rabin, Munder and Kleinfeld, JJ., concur.
