Opinion
December 10, 1998
Appeal from the Supreme Court, New York County (Colleen McMahon, J.).
The court's refusal to deliver a specific interested witness charge with respect to a witness who had entered into a cooperation agreement is not a basis for reversal, since the court gave sufficient general instructions on assessing credibility, including an instruction that the jury could consider motive to falsify, and since the agreement was stressed on cross-examination and summation ( see, People v. Inniss, 83 N.Y.2d 653, 659).
