People v. Ortiz

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Jun 27, 1988
141 A.D.2d 864 (N.Y. App. Div. 1988)

Opinion

June 27, 1988

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


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The alleged errors in the prosecutor's summation have not been preserved for appellate review (CPL 470.05; see, People v Medina, 53 N.Y.2d 951). In any event, were we to accept the defendant's contentions regarding the summation, we would find that the claimed errors were harmless in view of the overwhelming proof of guilt (see, People v Villot, 126 A.D.2d 585, lv denied 69 N.Y.2d 887; People v Crimmins, 36 N.Y.2d 230; People v Wood, 66 N.Y.2d 374).

We have reviewed the contentions raised in the defendant's pro se supplemental brief and find them to be either unpreserved for appellate review or meritless. Mollen, P.J., Lawrence, Weinstein and Balletta, JJ., concur.
