Opinion
May 17, 1993
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Queens County (Savarese, J.).
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
The defendant and an unidentified man each sold a vial of crack cocaine to an undercover police officer. The defendant was arrested and convicted of criminal sale of a controlled substance in the third degree. The defendant's contention that the evidence was legally insufficient was not preserved for appellate review (see, CPL 470.05; People v Udzinski, 146 A.D.2d 245, 250). In any event, viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution (see, People v Contes, 60 N.Y.2d 620), we find that it was legally sufficient to establish that the defendant was identified by the undercover officer as one of the drug sellers.
In addition, the trial court did not improvidently exercise its discretion in failing to charge the jury with respect to the offense of criminal facilitation. Criminal facilitation is not a lesser-included offense of criminal sale of a controlled substance in the third degree (see, People v Glover, 57 N.Y.2d 61).
We have considered the defendant's remaining contentions and find them to be either unpreserved for appellate review (see, CPL 470.05) or without merit. Bracken, J.P., Rosenblatt, Pizzuto and Santucci, JJ., concur.
