People v. Long

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Fourth Department
Nov 15, 1988
144 A.D.2d 1015 (N.Y. App. Div. 1988)

Opinion

November 15, 1988

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Monroe County, Boehm, J.

Present — Dillon, P.J., Callahan, Denman, Balio and Lawton, JJ.


Judgment unanimously affirmed. Memorandum: Defendant argues on appeal that the admission into evidence of his codefendant's statement violated the rule in Bruton v. United States ( 391 U.S. 123). The codefendant's statement was received without objection and thus the issue is not preserved for review (People v Russell, 71 N.Y.2d 1016, 1017). While we decline to exercise our power to review in the interest of justice (CPL 470.15 [a]), we note nevertheless that all references to defendant were redacted from the codefendant's statement and if there was any error in receiving the statement, it was harmless (People v Hamlin, 71 N.Y.2d 750). We have reviewed the other issues raised on appeal and find them to be without merit.
