Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York · Decided January 28, 2002
290 A.D.2d 562; 737 N.Y.S.2d 298; 2002 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 793
People v. DiTrapani

Opinion of the Court

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Tomei, J.), rendered March 13, 1998, convicting her of manslaughter in the second degree, after a nonjury trial, and imposing sentence.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

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]).

The defendant’s remaining contention is without merit. Altman, J.P., S. Miller, Cozier and Prudenti, JJ., concur.
