Opinion
December 22, 1986
Appeal from the County Court, Nassau County (Collins, J., Lawrence, J.).
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed; and it is further,
Ordered that the order is affirmed.
There was sufficient evidence to support the jury's finding of guilt. Counsel's decision not to raise an insanity defense appears to have been a matter of trial strategy, and does not constitute ineffective assistance of counsel (People v Zaborski, 59 N.Y.2d 863, 864).
The defendant's remaining contentions, including those raised in both pro se briefs, have been considered and found to be without merit. Thompson, J.P., Niehoff, Rubin and Eiber, JJ., concur.
