304 A.D.2d 484 (N.Y. App. Div. 2003)

Opinion

978

April 29, 2003.

Judgment, Supreme Court, Bronx County (Robert Cohen, J.), rendered September 20, 2000, convicting defendant, after a nonjury trial, of criminally negligent homicide, leaving the scene of an incident without reporting, driving without a license, driving the wrong way on a one-way street and reckless driving, and sentencing him to an aggregate term of 2 to 7 years, unanimously affirmed.

Mary B. McGarvey-Depuy, for respondent.

Steven J. Miraglia, for defendant-appellant.

Before: Buckley, P.J., Mazzarelli, Ellerin, Williams, Gonzalez, JJ.


The verdict was based on legally sufficient evidence and was not against the weight of the evidence (People v. Bleakley, 69 N.Y.2d 490). There is no basis for disturbing the court's determinations concerning credibility. Evidence properly credited by the court clearly established defendant's guilt of criminally negligent homicide (see People v. Boutin, 75 N.Y.2d 692).

We perceive no basis for reducing the sentence.

THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE SUPREME COURT, APPELLATE DIVISION, FIRST DEPARTMENT.
