People v. Jones
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York · Decided July 7, 1997
241 A.D.2d 464; 661 N.Y.S.2d 516; 1997 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 7257
People v. Jones

Opinion of the Court

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Egitto, J.), rendered April 12, 1995, convicting him of murder in the second degree, criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree, and criminal possession of a weapon in the third degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

*465Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

Contrary to the defendant’s contention, the trial court’s charge on circumstantial evidence was adequate and did not deprive him of a fair trial (see, e.g., People v Gonzalez, 54 NY2d 729).

The defendant’s remaining contentions are either unpreserved for appellate review or without merit. Bracken, J. P., Rosenblatt, Ritter and Luciano, JJ., concur.
