THOMAS A. DICKERSON COLLEEN D. DUFFY FRANCESCA E. CONNOLLY, JJ. (Ind. No. 11-00168)

Scott B. Tulman, New York, NY, for appellant.

James A. McCarty, Acting District Attorney, White Plains, NY (Raffaelina Gianfrancesco and Laurie G. Sapakoff of counsel), for respondent.

DECISION & ORDER

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the County Court, Westchester County (Hubert, J.), rendered August 16, 2012, convicting her of driving while intoxicated in violation of Vehicle and Traffic Law § 1192(3), upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.

Contrary to the defendant's contention, the People's failure to turn over an activity log prepared by a police officer who responded to the scene and assisted in the defendant's arrest was not a Rosario violation (see People v Rosario, 9 NY2d 286), because that officer did not testify at the trial and there is no evidence that the log contained a statement by a witness who did testify (see CPL 240.24[1][a]; People v Moore, 29 AD3d 825, 826; People v Simons, 280 AD2d 688; People v Williams, 229 AD2d 603, 604).

CHAMBERS, J.P., DICKERSON, DUFFY and CONNOLLY, JJ., concur. ENTER:

Aprilanne Agostino

Clerk of the Court
