People v. Alleyne

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Aug 14, 1995
218 A.D.2d 705 (N.Y. App. Div. 1995)

Opinion

August 14, 1995

Appeal from the County Court, Nassau County (Seybert, J.).


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant's contention that the indictment contained duplicitous counts is without merit, as the challenged count, criminal sale of a controlled substance in the third degree, referred solely to the single sale of crack cocaine to the purchaser (see, CPL 200.30).

The issue of the legal sufficiency of the evidence has not been preserved for appellate review (see, CPL 470.05; People v Udzinski, 146 A.D.2d 245). In any event, viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution (see, People v Contes, 60 N.Y.2d 620), we find that it was legally sufficient to establish the defendant's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. Moreover, upon the exercise of our factual review power, we are satisfied that the verdict of guilt was not against the weight of the evidence (see, CPL 470.15).

The defendant's remaining contentions are either unpreserved for appellate review or without merit. Bracken, J.P., Balletta, Pizzuto and Hart, JJ., concur.
