In re Malvey

259 A.D. 716, 19 N.Y.S.2d 496, 1940 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 6380

Opinion

Order unanimously reversed, without costs, and the motion granted. There is nothing in the Election Law which requires that the signature of a witness appearing on a nominating petition shall be identical in form with the signature appearing on the registration book. Identity of person is all that is required. Present — Martin, P. J., O’Malley, Townley, Glennon and Untermyer, JJ.
