Opinion
May 10, 1993
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Queens County (O'Dwyer, J.).
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
The defendant was convicted of the burglary and ransacking of an apartment in Queens. The defendant's argument concerning the court's failure to give a limiting instruction relating to the proper use of his prior inconsistent statement was not preserved for appellate review (CPL 470.05). Moreover, in light of the overwhelming evidence of guilt, we decline to reach this argument in the exercise of our interest of justice jurisdiction (see, People v Watford, 146 A.D.2d 590). The defendant's remaining contention is without merit. Sullivan, J.P., Lawrence, Copertino and Santucci, JJ., concur.
