Opinion
January 25, 1988
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Kings County (Miller, J.).
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the People, as we must, we find that it is legally sufficient to support the defendant's conviction (see, People v Morgan, 66 N.Y.2d 255, cert denied 476 U.S. 1120; People v Contes, 60 N.Y.2d 620). Moreover, upon the exercise of our factual review power we are satisfied that the evidence established the defendant's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt and that the verdict was not against the weight of the evidence (CPL 470.15). The contentions raised by the defendant on appeal concern issues of credibility and the weight to be given the witnesses' testimony which are issues primarily for the jury to determine (see, People v McCrimmon, 131 A.D.2d 598, lv dismissed 70 N.Y.2d 714). The jury resolved those issues against the defendant and we perceive no reason upon the record before us to disturb its determination. Mollen, P.J., Thompson, Lawrence and Eiber, JJ., concur.
