Opinion

September 23, 1993

Appeal from the County Court of Ulster County (Vogt, J.).

We find no abuse of discretion in County Court's denial of defendant's motion for a mistrial. Any prejudice to defendant was offset by County Court's curative instructions to the jury (see, People v Rossi, 185 A.D.2d 401, lv denied 80 N.Y.2d 909).

Weiss, P.J., Mercure, Cardona, Mahoney and Casey, JJ., concur. Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
