People v. Eason

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Jun 24, 1996
228 A.D.2d 693 (N.Y. App. Div. 1996)

Opinion

June 24, 1996

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Kings County (Feldman, J.).


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant's contention that the evidence was legally insufficient to support his convictions for murder in the second degree and robbery in the first degree is unpreserved for appellate review ( see, CPL 470.05; People v. Chillino, 186 A.D.2d 260, 261; People v. Udzinski, 146 A.D.2d 245, 250). In any event, viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the People ( see, People v. Contes, 60 N.Y.2d 620, 621), we find that it was legally sufficient to establish the defendant's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt ( cf., People v. Armistead, 178 A.D.2d 607, 608). Moreover, upon the exercise of our factual review power, we are satisfied that the verdict of guilt was not against the weight of the evidence ( see, CPL 470.15).

The defendant's remaining contentions are unpreserved for appellate review and, in any event, without merit or do not require reversal. Bracken, J.P., Miller, Copertino and Krausman, JJ., concur.
