    We affirm. Viewing the evidence independently and in light of the elements of the crimes as charged to the jury (seePeople v. Danielson , 9 N.Y.3d 342, 349, 849 N.Y.S.2d 480, 880 N.E.2d 1 [2007] ; People v. Beckwith , 182 A.D.3d 995, 995, 120 N.Y.S.3d 905 [4th Dept. 2020] ), we reject defendant's contention that the verdict is against the weight of the evidence on the knowledge element of each crime (seePeople v. Rice , 105 A.D.3d 1443, 1444, 963 N.Y.S.2d 501 [4th Dept. 2013], lv denied 21 N.Y.3d 1076, 974 N.Y.S.2d 325, 997 N.E.2d 150 [2013] ; People v.

Notably, defendant does not challenge the jury's determination that the People proved beyond a reasonable doubt that he filed a forged and false deed with intent to defraud (see generally Penal Law §§ 170.25, 175.35 [1] ; People v. Dallas , 46 A.D.3d 489, 491, 848 N.Y.S.2d 132 [1st Dept. 2007], lv denied 10 N.Y.3d 809, 857 N.Y.S.2d 43, 886 N.E.2d 808 [2008], reconsideration denied 10 N.Y.3d 9
