284 A.D.2d 475 (N.Y. App. Div. 2001)

Opinion

Submitted May 25, 2001

June 18, 2001.

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Egitto, J.), rendered May 16, 1996, convicting him of reckless endangerment in the first degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

Lynn W. L. Fahey, New York, N.Y. (Tonya Plank of counsel), for appellant.

Charles J. Hynes, District Attorney, Brooklyn, N.Y. (Leonard Joblove, Thomas M. Ross, and Esther Noe of counsel), for respondent.

Before: CORNELIUS J. O'BRIEN, J.P., MYRIAM J. ALTMAN, DANIEL F. LUCIANO, THOMAS A. ADAMS, JJ.


ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant's contention that the evidence was legally insufficient to establish his guilt is unpreserved for appellate review (see, CPL 470.05). In any event, viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the People (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. 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).

O'BRIEN, J.P., ALTMAN, LUCIANO and ADAMS, JJ., concur.
