New York Court of Appeals, 1998

People v. Esquilin

New York Court of Appeals · Decided February 11, 1998 · Kaye and Judges Titone, Bellacosa, Smith, Levine, Ciparick and Wesley Concur

691 N.E.2d 1024; 91 N.Y.2d 902; 668 N.Y.S.2d 1000; 1998 N.Y. LEXIS 3 (North Eastern Reporter, Second Series)

Opinion

OPINION OF THE COURT

Memorandum.

The order of the Appellate Division should be affirmed.

As there was evidence to support the lower courts’ determination that the police possessed a reasonable suspicion of criminal activity justifying the pursuit of defendant (see, People v Sierra, 83 NY2d 928), the issue is beyond this Court’s further review.

Defendant’s remaining contention that the trial court violated CPL 310.30 by failing to properly respond to a jury question is without merit.

Chief Judge Kaye and Judges Titone, Bellacosa, Smith, Levine, Ciparick and Wesley concur.

Order affirmed in a memorandum.
