The opinion
Appeal by the People from an order of the County Court, Suffolk County, dated December 24, 1975, which granted defendant’s motion to dismiss the indictment, which charged him with assault in the second degree. Order reversed, on the law, and indictment reinstated. It was an improvident exercise of discretion to dismiss the indictment "in the interest of justice” (see CPL 210.40, subd 2). The authorities cited by the County Court in support of its determination, People v Clayton ( 41 AD2d 204 ) and People v Davis ( 55 Misc 2d 656 ), are inapplicable. In Clayton we set forth the criteria for such a dismissal; none is here present. Nor do we have a plea of guilty to a misdemeanor and a statement by the probation department, in a presentence report, that defendant is making an "excellent adjustment”, or any of the other extenuating and compelling factors which were found in Davis (supra). Unlike Davis , at bar a "member of the public has suffered” because of the defendant’s conduct (see People v Davis, 55 Misc 2d 656, 658 , supra). Hopkins, Acting P. J., Martuscello, Latham, Titone and Hawkins, JJ., concur.
