People v. Garcia-Villegas
Opinion of the Court
—Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Gavrin, J.), rendered March 24, 2008, convicting him of murder in the second degree, tampering with physical evidence, and criminal possession of a weapon in the fourth degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
The sentence imposed was not excessive (see People v Suitte, 90 AD2d 80 [1982]).
The defendant’s contention raised in his supplemental pro se brief is unpreserved for appellate review (see CPL 470.05 [2]) and, in any event, under the circumstances of this case, does not require reversal (cf. CPL 470.15 [6] [a]).
The defendant’s remaining contention is without merit. Fisher, J.P., Santucci, Eng and Sgroi, JJ., concur.
