What is the test for presumption in a motion for possession of a firearm?
"New York", United States of America
The following excerpt is from Van Winkle v. Winkle, 184 N.Y. 193, 77 N.E. 33 (N.Y. 1906):
Doe v. Cooke, 6 Bing. 174, 179: No case can be put in which any presumption has been made, except where a title has [184 N.Y. 210]been shown by the party, who calls for the presumption, good in substance, but wanting some collateral matter necessary to make it complete in point of form. The only case, as the same judge pointed out, would be where a possession had been shown consistent with the fact to be presumed.
