Opinion
December 12, 1994
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Kings County (Spodek, J.).
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution (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. Moreover, upon the exercise of our factual review power, we are satisfied that the verdict of guilt was not against the weight of the evidence (see, CPL 470.15). Further, the defendant's claim that the court displayed a bias against and a hostility toward him and his proposed witness is not preserved for appellate review and, in any event, is without merit (see, People v Yut Wai Tom, 53 N.Y.2d 44; People v Jamison, 47 N.Y.2d 882; People v Moulton, 43 N.Y.2d 944; People v Buckheit, 95 A.D.2d 814).
The defendant's remaining contentions are without merit. Sullivan, J.P., Rosenblatt, Pizzuto and Altman, JJ., concur.
