How later courts describe this case

  • holding that arrest warrant initiated state prosecution for Kirby purposes because New York law equates the issuance of an arrest warrant on probable cause with the filing of an indictment
  • filing of complaint pursuant to Fed.R.Crim.P. 3 and arrest warrant does not trigger Sixth Amendment right to counsel
