People v. Lock
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York · Decided March 14, 1988
138 A.D.2d 527; 526 N.Y.S.2d 397; 1988 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 2860
People v. Lock

Opinion of the Court

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Miller, J.), rendered April 11, 1984, convicting him of criminal possession of a controlled substance in the third degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution (see, People v Contes, 60 NY2d 620), we find that it was legally sufficient to establish the defendant’s guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. Moreover, upon the exercise of our factual review power, we are satisfied that the verdict of guilt was not against the weight of the evidence (CPL 470.15 [5]). Mangano, J. P., Thompson, Brown and Sullivan, JJ., concur.
