People v. Green
Opinion of the Court
—Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Leach, J.), rendered July 31, 1996, convicting him of
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
The defendant failed to preserve for appellate review his argument concerning the prosecutor’s cross-examination of one of his witnesses by failing to make timely, specifically tailored objections during trial (see, People v Hernandez, 260 AD2d 399, 400). In any event, the record supports the trial court’s determination that the prosecutor “adequately demonstrated his good faith and possessed a sufficient basis for asking the challenged question [s]” (People v Kass, 25 NY2d 123, 126; People v Sealy, 167 AD2d 362, 363). Moreover, the trial court instructed the jury that questions alone are not in evidence. Bracken, J. P., O’Brien, Krausman and Goldstein, JJ., concur.
