December 15, 1994
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Bronx County (Frank Diaz, J.).
Defendant's claim that the trial court excessively interfered with the conduct of the trial, thus depriving the defendant of a fair trial, is unpreserved for review as a matter of law. In order to have preserved the claim, trial counsel should have registered an appropriate objection at some meaningful point during trial (cf., People v Yut Wai Tom, 53 N.Y.2d 44), and not wait until after the verdict. On the basis of the present record, we decline to review in the interest of justice.
Concur — Rosenberger, J.P., Wallach, Kupferman, Ross and Williams, JJ.
