People v. Brunson
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York · Decided April 14, 1989
149 A.D.2d 940; 543 N.Y.S.2d 342; 1989 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 5952
People v. Brunson

Opinion of the Court

— Judgment unanimously affirmed. Memorandum: The Fourth Amendment claims raised by defendant were resolved on the appeal of his codefendant (see, People v Simmons, 101 AD2d 1032). Determination of which prior crimes may be introduced to impeach a defendant is within the sound discretion of the trial court (see, People v Armstrong, 148 AD2d 963) and the court’s Sandoval ruling was not an abuse of that discretion. (Appeal from judgment of Monroe County Court, Marks, J. — burglary, third degree; petit larceny.) Present — Dillon, P. J., Callahan, Denman, Green and Davis, JJ.
