People v. Haygood

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
May 4, 1998
250 A.D.2d 623 (N.Y. App. Div. 1998)

Opinion

May 4, 1998

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


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

Contrary to the defendant's claim, the count of the indictment charging her with grand larceny in the fourth degree was not jurisdictionally defective. That count of the indictment cited the applicable section of the Penal Law and tracked the language thereof. It was not required to spell out the People's theory (see, CPL 200.50 [a]; Penal Law § 155.30; People v. Ray, 71 N.Y.2d 849, 850; People v. Weston, 223 A.D.2d 661).

The defendant's remaining contentions are either unpreserved for appellate review or without merit.

Bracken, J.P., Copertino, Pizzuto and Altman, JJ., concur.
