61 A.D.3d 1345 (N.Y. App. Div. 2009)

Opinion

No. KA 04-00219.

April 24, 2009.

Appeal from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Monroe County (David D. Egan, J.), rendered November 20, 2003. The judgment convicted defendant, upon a jury verdict, of criminal sale of a controlled substance in the first degree, criminal possession of a controlled substance in the second degree and criminal possession of a controlled substance in the third degree.

MATTHEW D. NAFUS, SCOTTSVILLE, FOR DEFENDANT-APPELLANT.

MICHAEL C. GREEN, DISTRICT ATTORNEY, ROCHESTER (JESSICA BIRKAHN HOUSEL OF COUNSEL), FOR RESPONDENT.

Present: Hurlbutt, J.P., Martoche, Fahey, Carni and Gorski, JJ.


It is hereby ordered that the judgment so appealed from is unanimously affirmed.

Memorandum: Defendant appeals from a judgment convicting him following a jury trial of, inter alia, criminal sale of a controlled substance in the first degree (Penal Law § 220.43).

We reject the contention of defendant that he was denied a fair trial by the People's failure to turn over Rosario material in a timely manner. The People are not required to produce records that are not in their possession and that "`neither [the People] nor the courts of this State could gain access to without the consent of the appropriate Federal agency'" ( People v Frazier, 233 AD2d 896, 898).

Defendant made only a general motion for a trial order of dismissal and thus failed to preserve for our review his further contention that the conviction is not supported by legally sufficient evidence ( see People v Gray, 86 NY2d 10, 19). In any event, that contention lacks merit ( see generally People v Bleakley, 69 NY2d 490, 495).
