Opinion
February 22, 1993
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Kings County (Marrus, J.).
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
The People concede that the prosecutor violated the court's Sandoval ruling by cross-examining the defendant about the facts underlying a 1980 petit larceny conviction and the sentence he received therefor. However, in light of the overwhelming evidence of his guilt, the error was harmless (see, People v Crimmins, 36 N.Y.2d 230). The defendant's claim that the court erred in permitting additional cross-examination with regard to certain prior bad acts has not been preserved for appellate review (see, CPL 470.05; People v Fleming, 70 N.Y.2d 947; People v Udzinski, 146 A.D.2d 245) and is, in any event, meritless (see, People v McCullough, 141 A.D.2d 856).
We have examined the defendant's remaining contention and find it to be without merit (cf., People v Lyons, 106 A.D.2d 471). Eiber, J.P., Miller, Copertino and Pizzuto, JJ., concur.
