People v. Caprood
Opinion of the Court
— Appeal from a judgment of the County Court of Washington County (Berke, J.), rendered January 12, 1990, convicting defendant upon his plea of guilty of the crimes of burglary in the first degree, robbery in the first degree and escape in the first degree.
County Court properly denied defendant’s motion to suppress certain evidence. First, we find that defendant lacked standing to object to the search as he had no expectation of privacy in the searched premises in that he was only an occasional visitor there (see, People v Mills, 159 AD2d 520, lv denied 76 NY2d 739; People v Simon, 107 AD2d 196, 197-198). In any event, the record establishes that the search was conducted after the person who leased the apartment voluntarily gave his written consent (see, People v Mills, supra, at
Mahoney, P. J., Mikoll, Yesawich Jr. and Mercure, JJ., concur. Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
