People v. Chipp

In People v. Chipp, 75 N.Y.2d 327, cert. denied 498 U.S. 833 [1990] the Court of Appeals did not endorse a particular form of lineup over all others, rather, it stated "corporeal lineups, properly conducted, generally provide a reliable pretrial identification procedure and are properly admitted unless it is shown that some undue suggestiveness attached to the procedure." (75 N.Y.2d at 335.) Therefore courts must always consider whether a lineup was properly conducted and whether there was undue suggestiveness in the procedure.
