DECISION ORDER
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution (see, People v. Contes, 60 N.Y.2d 620 ), we find that it was legally sufficient to establish the defendant's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. Moreover, upon the exercise of our factual review power, we are satisfied that the verdict of guilt was not against the weight of the evidence (see, CPL 470.15[5]).
The defendant has failed to provide a sufficient record with respect to his claim that he was deprived of his right to a speedy trial (see, People v. Hannigan, 193 A.D.2d 8 ; People v. Olivo, 52 N.Y.2d 309 ).
There was probable cause to arrest the defendant (see, CPL 140.10; People v. Amoateng, 141 A.D.2d 398 ).
The sentence imposed was not excessive (see, People v. Broadie, 37 N.Y.2d 100 ; People v. Suitte, 90 A.D.2d 80 ).
