People ex Rel. Manning v. Scully

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Apr 19, 1993
192 A.D.2d 688 (N.Y. App. Div. 1993)

Opinion

April 19, 1993

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Dutchess County (Amodeo, J.).


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed, without costs or disbursements.

The defendant is now incarcerated pursuant to a judgment of conviction rendered after a jury trial (see, People v Manning, 178 A.D.2d 555). The gravamen of the petitioner's claim in this habeas corpus proceeding is that the evidence before the Grand Jury was legally insufficient. However, the petitioner waived this claim by failing to raise it in a pretrial motion (see, CPL 255.20; People v Miller, 121 A.D.2d 477). In any event, where, as here, the petitioner is convicted upon legally sufficient trial evidence (see, People v Manning, 178 A.D.2d 555, supra), the sufficiency of the Grand Jury evidence is not reviewable (see, CPL 210.30; Matter of Miranda v Isseks, 41 A.D.2d 176). We therefore affirm the judgment dismissing the proceeding. Thompson, J.P., Miller, Lawrence and Pizzuto, JJ., concur.
