People v. Black

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Apr 15, 1991
172 A.D.2d 678 (N.Y. App. Div. 1991)

Opinion

April 15, 1991

Appeal from the County Court, Westchester County (Cowhey, J.).


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant contends that his conviction should be reversed because numerous errors were committed by the court in its charge to the jury, and by the People in their summation. He also contends that the court erred when it failed to instruct the jury with respect to the lesser included offenses of manslaughter in the second degree and attempted assault in the first degree. Further, the defendant claims that the jury's verdict was against the weight of the evidence, and that the court imposed an excessive sentence. We find that the alleged errors claimed by the defendant have either been unpreserved for our review (see, CPL 470.05), or lack merit. Thompson, J.P., Brown, Harwood and Balletta, JJ., concur.
