People v. Cosme

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Feb 17, 1987
127 A.D.2d 780 (N.Y. App. Div. 1987)

Opinion

February 17, 1987

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Kings County (Hellenbrand, J.).


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant failed to take exception to the part of the trial court's charge on the defense of justification to which he now objects on appeal. Accordingly, his claim is not preserved for appellate review (CPL 470.05; see, People v. Thomas, 50 N.Y.2d 467). In any event, we find that the charge as a whole, including the supplemental charge, adequately conveyed the appropriate law to the jury and did not deprive the defendant of a fair trial (see, People v. Woods, 41 N.Y.2d 279). Lawrence, J.P., Kunzeman, Spatt and Sullivan, JJ., concur.
