Head Matter:
The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v. Patrick Monaco, Appellant.
Argued October 9, 1944;
decided November 30, 1944.

Opinion:
Per Curiam.
It was error for the trial court to charge, as a matter of law, that Katz was not an accomplice of the defendant. That was a question, on the record here presented, for the jury.
The judgments should be reversed and a new trial ordered.
Lehman, Ch. J., Lohghean, Rippey, Lewis, Conway, Desmond and Thacher, JJ., concur.
Judgments reversed, etc.
