People v. Rodriguez

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Nov 6, 1995
221 A.D.2d 381 (N.Y. App. Div. 1995)

Opinion

November 6, 1995

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Kings County (J. Goldberg, 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 evidence to establish beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant was acting in concert with the codefendant in the murder of the victims (see, People v Whatley, 69 N.Y.2d 784; People v Armistead, 178 A.D.2d 607; People v McLeod, 168 A.D.2d 461). 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 sentence imposed was not excessive (see, People v Suitte, 90 A.D.2d 80). The defendant's remaining contentions are either unpreserved for appellate review or without merit. Mangano, P.J., Bracken, Sullivan and Rosenblatt, JJ., concur.
