People v. Keating

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Fourth Department
Mar 16, 1990
159 A.D.2d 977 (N.Y. App. Div. 1990)

Opinion

March 16, 1990

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Erie County, Kubiniec, J.

Present — Denman, J.P., Green, Pine, Lawton and Lowery, JJ.


Judgment unanimously affirmed. Memorandum: Defendant appeals from a judgment convicting him of robbery in the first degree and argues that the court committed reversible error by denying defense counsel's motion to preclude the prosecutor from cross-examining defendant about pending charges. Defense counsel asserts the privilege against self-incrimination for the first time on appeal and thus has failed to preserve this issue for our review (see, People v Pavao, 59 N.Y.2d 282, 292, n 3; cf., People v Betts, 70 N.Y.2d 289), and we decline to reach it in the interest of justice.

We have examined defendant's remaining arguments on appeal and find them lacking merit.
