Opinion
June 15, 1987
Appeal from the County Court, Nassau County (Baker, J.).
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
A review of the record leads us to the conclusion that the court did not abuse its discretion in denying the defendant's request for a competency hearing pursuant to CPL 730.30 (1). The psychiatric reports submitted to the court were not only dated but also failed to raise a reasonable ground upon which to conclude that there was a question as to the defendant's competency to stand trial (see, CPL 730.10; People v Armlin, 37 N.Y.2d 167; People v Bancroft, 110 A.D.2d 773; People v Moye, 105 A.D.2d 853). Additionally, we note that the defendant submitted a pro se pretrial motion which was relevant to the proceedings and he conferred with his counsel during the request for a hearing, which conduct lends further support to the court's conclusion that a competency hearing was not warranted. Eiber, J.P., Kunzeman, Sullivan and Harwood, JJ., concur.
