Opinion
Argued June 22, 1999
October 12, 1999
Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Erlbaum, J.).
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
The court properly denied the defendant's motion for a mistrial. The court's adverse inference charge was an appropriate remedy for the People's failure to timely comply with the defendant's discovery demand ( see, CPL 240.20[c], 240.70; People v. Cunningham, 189 A.D.2d 821, 822; People v. Vargulik, 130 A.D.2d 530, 531).
The defendant's remaining contention is without merit.
THOMPSON, J.P., FRIEDMANN, SCHMIDT, and SMITH, JJ., concur.
