Opinion
April 20, 1987
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Kings County (Curci, J.).
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
Viewed in a light most favorable to the People (see, People v Shapiro, 117 A.D.2d 688, lv denied 67 N.Y.2d 950; People v Bauer, 113 A.D.2d 543, 548, lv denied 67 N.Y.2d 648, and 67 N.Y.2d 880), the evidence was legally sufficient to establish that the defendant stole property from the person of the complainant (Penal Law § 155.30). Moreover, upon the exercise of our factual review power we are satisfied that the evidence was of sufficient quality and quantity to establish the defendant's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt (CPL 470.15). Thompson, J.P., Brown, Niehoff and Rubin, JJ., concur.
