People v. Copeland

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, First Department
Feb 17, 1994
201 A.D.2d 374 (N.Y. App. Div. 1994)

Opinion

February 17, 1994

Appeal from the Supreme Court, New York County, Frederic S. Berman, J., Rena K. Uviller, J.


Defendant's motion to suppress identification testimony was properly denied, defendant having been identified at a prompt, at-the-scene showup (see, People v. Duuvon, 77 N.Y.2d 541, 545).

The challenged portions of the People's summation did not exceed the bounds of proper advocacy (People v. Galloway, 54 N.Y.2d 396, 399), and would, in any event, be considered harmless in view of the overwhelming evidence of guilt.

Concur — Rosenberger, J.P., Ellerin, Kupferman and Nardelli, JJ.
