Opinion

November 17, 1998

Appeal from the Family Court, New York County (George Jurow, J.).


The court's finding was based on legally sufficient evidence and was not against the weight of the evidence. Appellant's actions in "join[ing] in a formation which entrapped the victim while others [attempted] the robbery is sufficient to establish in-concert liability for robbery notwithstanding that [appellant] never spoke to or touched the victim" ( Matter of Eric R., 213 A.D.2d 310, 311; see also, People v. Corbett, 162 A.D.2d 416, lv denied 77 N.Y.2d 837).

Concur — Ellerin, J. P., Williams, Mazzarelli and Saxe, JJ.
