Appeal from Judgment of Monroe County Court, Egan, J. — Criminally Negligent Homicide.
PRESENT: GREEN, J. P., PINE WISNER, PIGOTT, JR., AND BALIO, JJ.
Judgment unanimously affirmed. Memorandum: Defendant contends that County Court committed reversible error by failing to respond adequately to the jury's request to read back certain testimony. We disagree. The record establishes that the court meaningfully responded to the jury's request by directing that all of the witness's relevant direct and cross-examination testimony be read to the jury ( see, People v. Sheriff, 234 A.D.2d 894, 895, lv denied 90 N.Y.2d 910). The court did not err in refusing to direct the reading of testimony beyond that requested ( see, People v. Almodovar, 62 N.Y.2d 126, 132; People v. Sheriff, supra, at 895).
