People v. Bush
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York · Decided March 18, 1996
225 A.D.2d 705; 639 N.Y.2d 743; 639 N.Y.S.2d 743; 1996 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 2669
People v. Bush

Opinion of the Court

The defendant’s challenges to the legal sufficiency of the evidence are unpreserved for appellate review (see, CPL 470.05 [2]; People v Udzinski, 146 AD2d 245). In any event, 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 (see, CPL 470.15 [5]).

Further, the defendant’s sentence was not excessive (see, People v Suitte, 90 AD2d 80).

The defendant’s remaining contentions are either unpreserved for appellate review (see, CPL 470.05 [2]) or without merit. Rosenblatt, J. P., Miller, Ritter and Sullivan, JJ., concur.
