People v. Standberry

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Nov 24, 1997
244 A.D.2d 584 (N.Y. App. Div. 1997)

Opinion

November 24, 1997

Appeal from the County Court, Suffolk County (Weissman, J.).


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant's contention that the trial court improperly interfered with his ability to present his defense is unpreserved for appellate review ( see, People v. Jones, 239 A.D.2d 602). In any event, the defendant was allowed to present his justification defense and the trial court's conduct in sustaining an objection to a question asked of the defendant during his direct testimony did not deprive the defendant of his right to a fair trial ( see, People v. Jones, supra).

The defendant's remaining contentions are unpreserved for appellate review and, in any event, without merit.

Copertino, J. P., Friedmann, Krausman and Goldstein, JJ., concur.
