Opinion
2003-991 Q CR.
Decided July 21, 2004.
Appeal by defendant from a judgment of the Criminal Court, Queens County (D. Modica, J.), rendered June 4, 2003, convicting him, after a bench trial, of attempted assault in the third degree (Penal Law §§ 110.00, 120.00) and harassment in the second degree (Penal Law § 240.26), and imposing sentence.
Judgment of conviction unanimously affirmed.
PRESENT: PESCE, P.J., GOLIA and RIOS, JJ.
Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the People ( see People v. Contes, 60 NY2d 620), we find that the circumstantial evidence adduced at trial was legally sufficient to establish, beyond a reasonable doubt ( see People v. Grassi, 92 NY2d 695, 697), defendant's guilt of attempted assault in the third degree (Penal Law §§ 110.00, 120.00) and harassment in the second degree (Penal Law § 240.26), and the verdict is not against the weight of the evidence ( see CPL 470.15). Defendant's remaining contentions are not preserved for appellate review or lack merit.
