24 A.D.3d 396 (N.Y. App. Div. 2005)

Opinion

7436.

December 29, 2005.

Judgment, Supreme Court, Bronx County (Robert A. Sackett, J.), rendered July 7, 2004, convicting defendant, after a jury trial, of robbery in the first degree, and sentencing him, as a second felony offender, to a term of 10 years, unanimously affirmed.

Before: Tom, J.P., Friedman, Nardelli and Sweeny, JJ., concur.


The verdict was not against the weight of the evidence ( see People v. Bleakley, 69 NY2d 490). There is no basis for disturbing the jury's determinations concerning credibility ( see People v. Gaimari, 176 NY 84, 94). Although defendant wore a mask during the crime, the victim was thoroughly familiar with defendant and was fully capable of making a reliable voice identification ( see People v. Collins, 60 NY2d 214).
