Dec 19, 2000
278 A.D.2d 433 (N.Y. App. Div. 2000)

Opinion

Submitted November 27, 2000.

December 19, 2000.

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Westchester County (Cowhey, J.), rendered January 8, 1998, convicting her of assault in the second degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

David M. Green, Melville, N.Y., for appellant.

Jeanine Pirro, District Attorney, White Plains, N.Y. (Laurie Sapakoff and Richard Longworth Hecht of counsel), for respondent.

Before: SONDRA MILLER, J.P., WILLIAM D. FRIEDMANN, GABRIEL M. KRAUSMAN, DANIEL F. LUCIANO, JJ.


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).

The defendant's remaining contentions are without merit.
