People v. Paul

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
May 30, 2000
272 A.D.2d 630 (N.Y. App. Div. 2000)

Opinion

May 30, 2000

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Bruno, J.), rendered April 16, 1998, convicting him of rape in the first degree (two counts), sexual abuse in the first degree (two counts), and endangering the welfare of a child, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

Before: Joy, J.P., Sullivan, Friedmann and H. Miller, JJ.


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

While we agree that the court erred in admitting certain testimony as prompt outcry evidence ( see, People v. McDaniel, 81 N.Y.2d 10, 16; People v. O'Sullivan, 104 N.Y. 481, 486-487; People v. Leon, 209 A.D.2d 342), reversal is not warranted in light of the overwhelming evidence of the defendant's guilt ( see, People v. Rice, 75 N.Y.2d 929; People v. Teixeira, 189 A.D.2d 838).

The defendant's remaining contention is unpreserved for appellate review, and, in any event, without merit.
