Opinion
No. 2008-07861.
June 22, 2010.
Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the County Court, Dutchess County (Dolan, J.), rendered August 7, 2008, convicting him of promoting prison contraband in the first degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.
Yasmin Daley Duncan, Brooklyn, N.Y., for appellant.
William V. Grady, District Attorney, Poughkeepsie, N.Y. (Joan H. McCarthy of counsel), for respondent.
Before: Mastro, J.P., Covello, Belen and Hall, JJ.
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution ( see People v Contes, 60 NY2d 620), we find that it was legally sufficient to establish the defendant's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. Moreover, upon our independent review pursuant to CPL 470.15 (5), we are satisfied that the verdict of guilt was not against the weight of the evidence ( see People v Romero, 7 NY3d 633).
The defendant's remaining contentions are unpreserved for appellate review.
