Gordon v. Kaufman

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Jul 22, 1985
112 A.D.2d 350 (N.Y. App. Div. 1985)

Opinion

July 22, 1985

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Queens County (Graci, J.).


Judgment affirmed, with costs.

We find no merit in defendant's contentions that the court failed to sufficiently marshal the evidence or that its marshaling was unbalanced or prejudicial ( Green v. Downs, 27 N.Y.2d 205; Theodoropoulos v. New York City Health Hosps. Corp., 90 A.D.2d 792; Blaize v. City of New York, 80 A.D.2d 594). The court adequately discussed the evidence and related it to the pertinent principles of law and to each party's arguments ( Green v. Downs, supra, p 208). The charge as a whole conveyed no impression that the court had an opinion on the merits of the case ( Theodoropoulos v. New York City Health Hosps. Corp., supra).

We have reviewed defendant's remaining contentions and find them to be without merit. Mollen, P.J., Mangano, O'Connor and Weinstein, JJ., concur.
