Facts
Cohen (D) gave a fur coat to a furrier to have it repaired. D then regained control of the coat by pretending to try it on. D refused to pay for the repairs on the coat or to return it. D was charged with grand larceny. D testified that the work done had lowered the value of the coat and that she had taken it in order to prevent the furrier from completely destroying it. D was convicted. She appealed because the trial court refused to admit expert evidence on the question of whether or not the coat had been damaged so much by the furrier that no payment was necessary.
