People v. Jones

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, First Department
Oct 24, 1995
220 A.D.2d 315 (N.Y. App. Div. 1995)

Opinion

October 24, 1995

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Bronx County (Lawrence Tonetti, J.).


Viewing the evidence in a light most favorable to the People, defendant's guilt of second degree robbery was proven by legally sufficient evidence. Defendant threatened the complainant with words and gestures, and ripped the complainant's gold chain from his neck ( see, People v. Henry, 204 A.D.2d 187, 188, lv denied 84 N.Y.2d 826), while aided by another. Upon exercise of our factual review power, we find that the verdict was not against the weight of the evidence.

Concur — Murphy, P.J., Asch, Nardelli and Mazzarelli, JJ.
