People v. Hamilton

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Feb 23, 1998
247 A.D.2d 630 (N.Y. App. Div. 1998)

Opinion

February 23, 1998

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Kings County (Marrus, J.).


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant argues that the People questioned him about his brother's threatening letter to a witness without giving the defendant advance notice pursuant to CPL 240.43. Because the defendant failed to object to these questions on this ground at trial, the issue is unpreserved for appellate review ( see, CPL 470.05; People v. Udzinski, 146 A.D.2d 245), and we decline to reach it in the exercise of our interest of justice jurisdiction ( see, CPL 470.15).

Rosenblatt, J.P., Miller, Ritter and Copertino, JJ., concur.
