People v. Bell
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York · Decided February 8, 1988
137 A.D.2d 606; 524 N.Y.S.2d 364; 1988 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 1004
People v. Bell

Opinion of the Court

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Posner, J.), rendered October 15, 1986, convicting her of robbery in the second degree (two counts) and assault in the second degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

Ordered, that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant contends that a single improper summation comment by the prosecutor deprived her of a fair trial. We find, however, that the alleged instance of misconduct—in *607respect to which defense counsel’s objection was immediately sustained—does not warrant reversal under the circumstances (see, People v Brown, 128 AD2d 542; People v Roopchand, 107 AD2d 35, affd 65 NY2d 837). Lawrence, J. P., Kunzeman, Kooper and Spatt, JJ., concur.
