"New York", United States of America

The following excerpt is from People v. Grutz , 105 N.E. 843, 212 N.Y. 72 (N.Y. 1914):

It may be that a piece of evidence admissible in either class of cases may not be sufficient in a criminal case, that is, without further evidence; but the evidence is not the less admissible. Grove, J., in Rex v. Mallory, 15 Cox, Cr. 460, quoted in Wigmore on Ev. 1, 4.
