Opinion
April 7, 1986
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Queens County (Balbach, J.).
Judgment affirmed.
The evidence adduced at the trial, viewed in the light most favorable to the People, is sufficient to sustain the defendant's convictions (see, People v. Contes, 60 N.Y.2d 620, 621). Additionally, the defendant knowingly waived his right to be present at sentencing (see, People v. Sanchez, 65 N.Y.2d 436, 444; People v. Davis, 106 A.D.2d 657, 658) and the sentence imposed was not excessive.
We have examined the remainder of the defendant's contentions and have found them to be either unpreserved or without merit. Lazer, J.P., Thompson, Niehoff and Kunzeman, JJ., concur.
