People v. Yi Ming Kam

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Apr 28, 1997
238 A.D.2d 617 (N.Y. App. Div. 1997)

Opinion

April 28, 1997


Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Finnegan, J.), rendered May 2, 1995, convicting him of robbery in the first degree, robbery in the second degree, burglary in the second degree, criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree, and criminal possession of a weapon in the third degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentencing.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant's challenge to the court's comments during jury selection is unpreserved for appellate review ( see, CPL 470.05; People v. Vargas, 88 N.Y.2d 363, 381; People v. Udzinski, 146 A.D.2d 245, 250).

The entirety of the court's reasonable doubt charge adequately conveyed the People's burden to prove the defendant's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt ( see, People v. Canty, 60 N.Y.2d 830, 831; People v. Thompson, 97 A.D.2d 554, 555; People v. Ortiz, 92 A.D.2d 595; People v. Patterson, 76 A.D.2d 891). Rosenblatt, J.P., Miller, Thompson and Santucci, JJ., concur.
