Opinion

December 11, 1995

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


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant's contention that the trial court improperly instructed the jury on the issue of his right not to testify was not preserved for appellate review since no objection was made to the charge as given (see, CPL 470.05; People v Pierre, 215 A.D.2d 599; People v Pough, 185 A.D.2d 330; People v Udzinski, 146 A.D.2d 245) and we decline to review it in the exercise of our interest of justice jurisdiction. Thompson, J.P., Ritter, Joy and Florio, JJ., concur.
