Opinion
December 16, 1997
Appeal from the Supreme Court, New York County (John Bradley, J.).
Evidence of uncharged narcotics transactions was properly admitted to establish intent to sell. The high probative value of the evidence outweighed the potential prejudice to defendant ( see, People v. Hernandez, 216 A.D.2d 11, 12, lv denied 86 N.Y.2d 795), and the People were not required to rest on the inferences flowing from the charged sale ( see, People v. Alvino, 71 N.Y.2d 233, 245).
We have considered defendant's other claims and find them to be without merit.
