People v. Luke

People v. Luke
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York · Decided July 12, 1989
152 A.D.2d 975; 544 N.Y.S.2d 743; 1989 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 9881
People v. Luke

Opinion of the Court

Judgment unanimously affirmed. Memorandum: Defendant contends that the People’s proof was insufficient to support his conviction of robbery in the first degree. Viewing the evidence, as we must, in the light most favorable to the People, we conclude that it provides a valid line of reasoning and permissible inferences to sustain the jury verdict (see, People v Bleakley, 69 NY2d 490, 495).

We have reviewed defendant’s remaining contentions and find them to be without merit. (Appeal from judgment of Erie County Court, Forma, J. — attempted murder, second degree, and other charges.) Present — Denman, J. P., Boomer, Pine, Balio and Lawton, JJ.
