Opinion
November 20, 1989
Appeal from the County Court, Westchester County (Colabella, 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 and to disprove the proffered defense of justification, assuming that defense had been adequately established, beyond a reasonable doubt. Thus, the defendant's contention that the evidence was legally insufficient to support the trial court's verdict is without merit. Brown, J.P., Eiber, Harwood and Rosenblatt, JJ., concur.
