Opinion
Argued June 25, 1999
October 4, 1999
In a juvenile delinquency proceeding pursuant to Family Court Act article 3, the appeal is from an order of the Family Court, Suffolk County (Freundlich, J.).
ORDERED that the order is affirmed, without costs or disbursements.
Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the presentment agency ( see, Matter of David H., 69 N.Y.2d 792, 793; Matter of Frank Z., 259 A.D.2d 705 [2d Dept., Mar. 22, 1999]; Matter of Jamarl J., 258 A.D.2d 583 [2d Dept., Feb. 16, 1999]; Matter of Haile B., 252 A.D.2d 497; Matter of Marcel F., 233 A.D.2d 442; Matter of Aulden M., 226 A.D.2d 536), we find that it was legally sufficient to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the appellant committed an act which, if committed by an adult, would have constituted attempted robbery in the first degree ( see, Penal Law §§ 110.00; 160.15[3]). Resolution of issues of credibility, as well as the weight to be accorded the evidence, are primarily questions to be determined by the finder of fact, which saw and heard the witnesses ( see, Matter of Frank Z., supra; Matter of Jamarl J., supra; Matter of Haile B., supra; Matter of Nnennya P., 247 A.D.2d 476; Matter of Joseph J., 205 A.D.2d 776). Its determination should be accorded great weight on appeal and should not be disturbed unless clearly unsupported by the record ( see, Matter of Nnennya P., supra; Matter of Stafford B., 187 A.D.2d 649). Upon the exercise of our factual review power, we are satisfied that the court's determination was not against the weight of the evidence ( cf., CPL 470.15).
The appellant's remaining contentions are without merit.
