277 A.D.2d 1052 (N.Y. App. Div. 2000)

Opinion

November 13, 2000.

Appeal from Judgment of Onondaga County Court, Mulroy, J. — Murder, 2nd Degree.

PRESENT: PIGOTT, JR., P. J., HAYES, HURLBUTT, BALIO AND LAWTON, JJ.


Judgment unanimously affirmed.

Memorandum:

We reject defendant's contention that the verdict is against the weight of the evidence. The jury was entitled to resolve the credibility issues against defendant, and we cannot conclude that the jury failed to give the evidence the weight it should be accorded ( see, People v. Bleakley, 69 N.Y.2d 490, 495). Defendant received effective assistance of counsel ( see, People v. Baldi, 54 N.Y.2d 137, 147). Defendant failed to object to the jury charge and thus failed to preserve for our review his contentions concerning alleged errors in the charge ( see, CPL 470.05). In any event, those contentions are without merit.
