Before: Renwick, J.P., Friedman, Moulton, Mendez, Pitt, JJ.
Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (Bonnie G. Wittner, J.), rendered December 19, 2016, convicting defendant, after a jury trial, of burglary in the second degree and sentencing him, as a persistent violent felony offender, to a term of 16 years to life, unanimously affirmed.
The court properly declined to submit criminal trespass as a lesser included offense, because there was no reasonable view of the evidence, viewed most favorably to defendant, that he unlawfully entered the building at issue without intent to commit a crime (see e.g. People v Amaya, 103 A.D.3d 568 [1st Dept 2013], lv denied 21 N.Y.3d 941 [2013]).
