Opinion
February 25, 1985
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Richmond County (Broomer, J.).
Judgment affirmed.
The court's participation in the questioning of the witnesses was not objected to, and therefore the issue has not been preserved. In any event, such questioning was well within proper bounds and did not deprive the defendant of a fair trial ( People v Limage, 57 A.D.2d 906, affd 45 N.Y.2d 845 on mem at App. Div.; People v Cruz, 100 A.D.2d 518). Mangano, J.P., Bracken, Weinstein and Niehoff, JJ., concur.
