Opinion
February 5, 1996
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Richmond County (Vinik, J.).
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
The trial court providently exercised its discretion in excluding a defense witness (see, People v. Justice, 172 A.D.2d 851). Furthermore, the prosecutor properly cross-examined another defense witness because the record shows that she had a good faith basis for the questioning (see, People v. De Pasquale, 54 N.Y.2d 693; People v. Lewis, 140 A.D.2d 714).
We find no basis to disturb the defendant's sentence (see, People v. Suitte, 90 A.D.2d 80). Mangano, P.J., Copertino, Joy and Altman, JJ., concur.
