Jul 3, 2000
274 A.D.2d 401 (N.Y. App. Div. 2000)

Opinion

Submitted May 8, 2000.

July 3, 2000.

The defendant appeals from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Friedman, J.), rendered February 26, 1996, convicting him of assault in the first degree and criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

Duane Williamson, New York, N.Y., for appellant, and appellant pro se.

Charles J. Hynes, District Attorney, Brooklyn, N.Y. (Leonard Joblove, Jodi L. Mandel, and Kellie Gasink of counsel), for respondent.

Before: DANIEL W. JOY, J.P., WILLIAM D. FRIEDMANN, GABRIEL M. KRAUSMAN, HOWARD MILLER, JJ.


DECISION ORDER

ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.

Contrary to the defendant's contention, the court's charge conveyed the correct principles of law to the jury (see, People v. Ladd, 89 N.Y.2d 893; People v. Fields, 87 N.Y.2d 821).

The defendant's sentence is not excessive (see, People v. Suitte, 90 A.D.2d 80).

The defendant's remaining contentions, including those raised in his supplemental pro se brief, are without merit.
