Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the County Court, Nassau County (LaPera, J.), rendered February 17, 1998, convicting him of criminal sale of a controlled substance in the third degree and criminal possession of a controlled substance in the third degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

Wayne P. Jordan, New Hyde Park, N.Y., for appellant.

Denis Dillon, District Attorney, Mineola, N.Y. (Karen Wigle Weiss and Margaret E. Mainusch of counsel), for respondent.

Before: DAVID S. RITTER, J.P., FRED T. SANTUCCI, GLORIA GOLDSTEIN, SANDRA J. FEUERSTEIN, JJ.


DECISION ORDER

ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.

We reject the defendant's contention that he was denied the effective assistance of counsel. Viewed in totality, the trial record reveals that he was provided meaningful representation (see, People v. Flores, 84 N.Y.2d 184, 186; People v. Jackson, 70 N.Y.2d 768, 769; People v. Badia, 159 A.D.2d 577, 578; People v. Sullivan, 153 A.D.2d 223).

The defendant's remaining contentions are unpreserved for appellate review, and in any event, without merit.
