Opinion
No. 2006-01157.
October 14, 2008.
Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Aloise, J.), rendered January 9, 2006, convicting her of criminal facilitation in the fourth degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.
Lynn W. L. Fahey, New York, N.Y. (William Kastin of counsel), for appellant.
Richard A. Brown, District Attorney, Kew Gardens, N.Y. (Gary Fidel and Jill Gross-Marks of counsel), for respondent.
Before: Rivera, J.P., Dillon, Covello and Angiolillo, JJ.
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
Under the circumstances of this case, the Supreme Court providently exercised its discretion in declining to "poll" certain jurors regarding their alleged contact with a previously excused prospective juror ( see People v Gajadhar, 281 AD2d 223; People v Cotto, 265 AD2d 190; People v Gillis, 213 AD2d 422, 422-423).
Contrary to the defendant's contention, the Supreme Court properly admitted at trial evidence of an uncharged crime ( see People v Ingram, 71 NY2d 474, 479-481; People v Alvino, 71 NY2d 233, 241-243; People v Girdler, 50 AD3d 1157, 1158).
