Opinion
July 3, 1995
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Kings County (Barasch, J.).
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
Contrary to the defendant's contention, the prosecutor's cross-examination of defense witness Detective Delores Sitgraves did not circumvent the court's Sandoval ruling ( see, People v Sandoval, 34 N.Y.2d 371) precluding the People from asking about the defendant's previous conviction for weapons possession. Although Detective Sitgraves did state that she worked in the Career Criminal Investigative Unit and explained what the unit did, she never testified that defendant had been previously arrested or convicted, nor did she provide any information about that conviction.
The defendant's remaining contentions are either unpreserved for appellate review ( see, CPL 470.05) or without merit. Thompson, J.P., Pizzuto, Santucci and Florio, JJ., concur.
