People v. Mack

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Jan 8, 1990
157 A.D.2d 673 (N.Y. App. Div. 1990)

Opinion

January 8, 1990

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Kings County (Goldstein, J.).


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

We find that the defendant was not denied his constitutional right of confrontation by the court's compliance with defense counsel's express requests made in the presence of the defendant, to excuse the defendant from portions of the pretrial hearing and from the missing witness hearing in order to prevent the complaining witnesses from viewing him, under suggestive circumstances, prior to any in-court identification (see, People v. Parker, 57 N.Y.2d 136, 139; People v. James, 100 A.D.2d 552). Mangano, J.P., Bracken, Sullivan and Balletta, JJ., concur.
