People v. Campbell

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Mar 17, 1997
237 A.D.2d 455 (N.Y. App. Div. 1997)

Opinion

March 17, 1997.

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Aiello, J.), rendered November 13, 1995, convicting him of reckless endangerment in the first degree and criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree (three counts), upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

Before: Thompson, J.P., Sullivan, Pizzuto and Santucci, JJ.


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

Contrary to the defendant's contention, the court's charge, as a whole, properly conveyed to the jury the correct standard to be applied concerning the charges on criminal possession of a weapon and made clear to the jurors what weapons were relevant to those charges ( see, People v Adams, 69 NY2d 805; People v Canty, 60 NY2d 830). Moreover, the defendant's sentence was not excessive ( see, People v Suitte, 90 AD2d 80).

The defendant's remaining contentions are either unpreserved for appellate review, without merit, or do not require reversal.
