Opinion
December 20, 1999
Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (Antonio Brandveen, J.), rendered October 3, 1996, convicting defendant, after a jury trial, of kidnapping in the second degree (4 counts), robbery in the first degree (12 counts), burglary in the first degree (3 counts), criminal use of a firearm in the first degree (2 counts), criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree (2 counts), robbery in the second degree (4 counts) and criminal possession of a weapon in the third degree (2 counts), and sentencing him, as a second felony offender, to an aggregate sentence of 18 to 36 years, unanimously affirmed.
Deborah L. Morse for Respondent.
Robert E. Carrigan for Defendant-Appellant.
ROSENBERGER, J.P., TOM, MAZZARELLI, LERNER, RUBIN, JJ.
The court properly denied defendant's motion to suppress identification testimony. Defendant's arguments are indistinguishable from those rejected by this Court on the codefendant's appeal (People v. Delances, ___ A.D.2d ___, 692 N.Y.S.2d 372), and we see no reason to reach a different result here.
We perceive no abuse of sentencing discretion.
THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF SUPREME COURT, APPELLATE DIVISION, FIRST DEPARTMENT.
