People v. Edwards

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Fourth Department
Jul 7, 1988
142 A.D.2d 964 (N.Y. App. Div. 1988)

Opinion

July 7, 1988

Appeal from the Monroe County Court, Maloy, J.

Present — Dillon, P.J., Doerr, Green, Balio and Lawton, JJ.


Judgment unanimously affirmed. Memorandum: Upon the exercise of our power of independent review (see, People v. Bleakley, 69 N.Y.2d 490), we find that the implicit finding of an intent to steal was not contrary to the weight of the credible evidence. We also conclude that the trial court did not abuse its discretion by refusing to dismiss the indictment in the interest of justice pursuant to CPL 210.40.

We have considered defendant's remaining contention and find it to lack merit.
