People v. Rice
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York · Decided January 23, 2007
36 A.D.3d 835; 826 N.Y.S.2d 914
People v. Rice

Opinion of the Court

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Queens County *836(Latella, J.), rendered November 17, 2004, convicting her of criminal sale of a controlled substance in the third degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

In light of the overwhelming evidence of the defendant’s guilt, the prosecutor’s comments in summation, to which objection was made and overruled, constitute harmless error and thus do not warrant reversal (see People v Crimmins, 36 NY2d 230 [1975]). Schmidt, J.E, Mastro, Santucci and Fisher, JJ., concur.
