Opinion

Scott, J.:

The defendant has been convicted of murder in the second [165]*165People v. Shenk, 142 N. Y. Supp., 1081; s. c. 30 N. Y. Cr. Rep., 128, which is to move to dismiss the information because of the insufficiency of evidence and that, therefore, the Magistrate had no jurisdiction to hold the defendant for trial. See also People ex rel. Phillips v. Hanley, 164 App. Div. 150. Even the regularity of this practice has been questioned.

The demurrer is, accordingly, overruled.

All concur.
