Opinion
Argued May 16, 2000.
September 13, 2000.
Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (D'Emic, J.), rendered June 25, 1997, convicting him of manslaughter in the second degree (two counts) and criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence. The appeal brings up for review the denial, after a hearing, of those branches of the defendant's omnibus motion which were to suppress physical evidence and statements he made to law enforcement authorities.
M. Sue Wycoff, New York, N.Y. (Toko Serita and Richard Joselson of counsel), for appellant.
Charles J. Hynes, District Attorney, Brooklyn, N.Y. (Leonard Joblove and Jane S. Meyers of counsel), for respondent.
Before: DAVID S. RITTER, J.P., THOMAS R. SULLIVAN, ANITA R. FLORIO, SANDRA J. FEUERSTEIN, JJ.
DECISION ORDER
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
Contrary to the defendant's contention on appeal, the hearing court properly denied his motion to suppress his written statement (see, People v. Rodney, 85 N.Y.2d 289; People v. Tarsia, 50 N.Y.2d 1; People v. Anderson, 42 N.Y.2d 35).
The defendant's remaining contentions are either without merit or do not warrant reversal (see, People v. Crimmins, 36 N.Y.2d 230).
