People v. Jones

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Mar 9, 1987
128 A.D.2d 639 (N.Y. App. Div. 1987)

Opinion

March 9, 1987

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


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

We agree with the trial court's denial of the defendant's request to charge the jury that they could consider the offense of sexual abuse in the third degree as a lesser included offense of sexual abuse in the first degree since there was no reasonable view of the evidence which would support such a charge (CPL 300.50). We find no errors in the prosecutor's cross-examination of the defendant nor in his summation which would have deprived the defendant of a fair trial. Rubin, J.P., Kunzeman, Spatt and Harwood, JJ., concur.
