NATURE OF THE CASE: This was an appeal of a larceny conviction.
FACTS: Canadian Fur Trappers Corp. (D) sold furs on an installment plan. Mrs. Stanley paid $25 down on a $295 fur. Upon tendering the balance, she discovered that her fur had been resold and she refused to accept an inferior substitute. D was indicted for larceny. The People (P) made several offers of proof that what happened to Mrs. Stanley was a common practice of the corporation and authorized by its officers. Those offers of proof were rejected. D was convicted and appealed; the state failed to establish the requisite specific intent for larceny.
