People v. Sanchez

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, First Department
Jan 14, 1997
235 A.D.2d 254 (N.Y. App. Div. 1997)

Opinion

January 14, 1997.

Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (Ronald Zwiebel, J.), rendered June 15, 1993, convicting defendant, after a jury trial, of criminal possession of a controlled substance in the third degree, and sentencing him, as a second felony offender, to a term of 5 to 10 years, unanimously affirmed.

Before: Sullivan, J. P., Milonas, Rosenberger and Wallach, JJ.


Defendant's claim that the People failed to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that he had knowledge of the weight of the drugs possessed is unpreserved since he failed to raise a specific objection on this ground ( see, People v Gray, 86 NY2d 10), and we decline to review it in the interest of justice. Were we to review it, we would find it to be without merit ( see, People v Sanchez, 86 NY2d 27, 34). Defendant's claim that the Grand Jury evidence was insufficient is, in the circumstances here presented, not reviewable on appeal (CPL 210.30). Defendant's remaining contentions are without merit.
