People v. Williams
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York · Decided February 22, 1994
201 A.D.2d 688; 609 N.Y.S.2d 830
People v. Williams

Opinion of the Court

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (George, J.), rendered March 23, 1992, convicting him of murder in the second degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

Viewing the evidence adduced at trial in the light most favorable to the People (see, People v Contes, 60 NY2d 620, 621), 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 (see, CPL 470.15 [5]).

The defendant’s remaining contentions are either unpreserved for appellate review or without merit. Sullivan, J. P., Santucci, Goldstein and Florio, JJ., concur.
