273 A.D.2d 398 (N.Y. App. Div. 2000)

Opinion

Submitted May 12, 2000.

June 19, 2000.

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Martin, J.), rendered December 19, 1997, convicting him of attempted murder in the second degree (two counts), attempted arson in the second degree, robbery in the first degree, and criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

M. Sue Wycoff, New York, N.Y. (Judith Stern of counsel), for appellant.

Charles J. Hynes, District Attorney, Brooklyn, N.Y. (Leonard Joblove and Caroline R. Donhauser of counsel), for respondent.

Before: GLORIA GOLDSTEIN, J.P., LEO F. McGINITY, DANIEL F. LUCIANO, NANCY E. SMITH, JJ.


DECISION ORDER

ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.

Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the People (see, People v. Contes, 60 N.Y.2d 620), we find that it was legally sufficient to establish the defendant's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.

The sentence imposed was not excessive (see, People v. Suitte, 90 A.D.2d 80).
