Opinion
Submitted June 25, 1999
October 4, 1999
Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Marrus, J.).
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
Contrary to the defendant's contention on appeal, the defense counsel effectively waived the defendant's right to a public trial by consenting to the closure of the courtroom during the testimony of two undercover police officers ( see, People v. Miller, 257 N.Y. 54; People v. Sevencan, 258 A.D.2d 485 [2d Dept., Feb. 1, 1999]; People v. Daughtry, 242 A.D.2d 731; People v. Espejo, 237 A.D.2d 458).
The defendant's remaining contentions are without merit.
S. MILLER, J.P., SULLIVAN, ALTMAN, and McGINITY, JJ., concur.
