People v. Rodriguez

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, First Department
Apr 27, 2004
6 A.D.3d 338 (N.Y. App. Div. 2004)

Opinion

3486.

Decided April 27, 2004.

Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (Laura Visitacion-Lewis, J.), rendered April 10, 2002, convicting defendant, after a jury trial, of robbery in the second degree, and sentencing him to a term of 3 ½ years, unanimously affirmed.

Center for Appellate Litigation, New York (Robert S. Dean of counsel), for appellant.

Robert M. Morgenthau, District Attorney, New York (Hilary Hassler of counsel), for respondent.

Before: Nardelli, J.P., Saxe, Sullivan, Gonzalez, JJ.


The verdict was not against the weight of the evidence. There is no basis for disturbing the jury's determinations concerning identification and credibility ( see People v. Bleakley, 69 N.Y.2d 490). The victim's reliable identification of defendant was corroborated by extensive circumstantial evidence, as well as defendant's voluntary confession.

THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE SUPREME COURT, APPELLATE DIVISION, FIRST DEPARTMENT.
