Opinion
March 1, 1999
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Suffolk County (Mullen, 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 ( People v. Alexander, 176 A.D.2d 947; People v. Harvey, 175 A.D.2d 138). 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).
The defendant's remaining contention was not preserved for appellate review and we decline to reach it in the exercise of our interest of justice jurisdiction.
Miller, J. P., Ritter, Florio and Luciano, JJ., concur.
