Opinion
May 5, 1997
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Kings County (Firetog, J.).
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution ( see, People v. Contes, 60 N.Y.2d 620), we find that it was legally sufficient to establish the defendant's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. The jury reasonably relied on the presumption set forth in Penal Law § 265.15(4) to infer the defendant's intent to use a loaded firearm unlawfully against another ( see, People v. Steward, 213 A.D.2d 570; People v. Bumbury, 194 A.D.2d 735). Moreover, upon the exercise of our factual review power, we are satisfied that the verdict of guilt was not against the weight of the evidence ( see, CPL 470.15).
The defendant's remaining contentions are without merit.
Miller, J.P., Copertino, Krausman and Florio, JJ., concur.
