People v. Torres

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Dec 29, 1995
222 A.D.2d 720 (N.Y. App. Div. 1995)

Opinion

December 29, 1995

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


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant's claims regarding certain remarks made by the prosecutor during summation are for the most part unpreserved for appellate review (see, CPL 470.05). In any event, the remarks were fair comment on properly admitted evidence and constituted a legitimate response to defense counsel's summation (see, People v Taylor, 220 A.D.2d 705; People v Perry, 218 A.D.2d 818).

The defendant's remaining contentions are without merit. Balletta, J.P., O'Brien, Santucci and Florio, JJ., concur.
