People v. Marshall

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Nov 13, 1995
221 A.D.2d 476 (N.Y. App. Div. 1995)

Opinion

November 13, 1995

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


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant was the "look out" for a robbery of a liquor store that resulted in the death of the owner of the liquor store and the serious injury of an employee. The defendant was convicted of robbery in the first degree and acquitted of felony murder and felony assault. He was tried before a separate jury at a joint trial with a codefendant (see, People v Cabeza, 221 A.D.2d 460 [decided herewith]).

The defendant argues that the verdict was repugnant. However, because an objection to the verdict was not raised before the jury was dismissed, this argument has not been preserved for appellate review (see, People v Alfaro, 66 N.Y.2d 985). In any event, the verdict was not repugnant. Neither of the crimes of which the defendant was acquitted, as they were charged to the jury, was conclusive with regard to a necessary element of the crime of which the defendant was convicted (see, People v Loughlin, 76 N.Y.2d 804; People v Tucker, 55 N.Y.2d 1).

Further, the defendant failed to preserve for appellate review his argument that the court improperly allowed the People to present rebuttal testimony concerning his alibi in the absence of notice pursuant to CPL 250.20 (see, CPL 470.05; People v. Beavers, 127 A.D.2d 138), and we decline to reach it in the exercise of our interest of justice jurisdiction.

The defendant's remaining contentions are either unpreserved for appellate review or without merit. Miller, J.P., O'Brien, Ritter and Goldstein, JJ., concur.
