"New York", United States of America

The following excerpt is from People v. Bullard-Daniel, 42 N.Y.S.3d 714, 54 Misc.3d 177 (N.Y. Cty. Ct. 2016):

6 Presumably, Defendant is referring to the admonition in People v. Leone, 25 N.Y.2d 511, 518, 307 N.Y.S.2d 430, 255 N.E.2d 696 (1969) that scientific "tests" can have an undue influence on juries and therefore, courts must be "most careful in admitting into evidence the results of such tests unless their reasonable accuracy and general scientific acceptance is clearly recognized."
