People v. Burwell

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department

237 A.D.2d 526 (N.Y. App. Div. 1997)

Opinion

March 24, 1997.

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the County Court, "Westchester County (LaCava, J.), rendered July 28, 1995, convicting him of burglary in the second degree and petit larceny, after a nonjury trial, and imposing sentence.

Before: Miller, J. P., Ritter, Thompson and Krausman, JJ.


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution ( see, People v Contes, 60 NY2d 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).

We find the defendant's remaining contention to be unpreserved for appellate review and without merit.
