People v. Salazar

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Aug 5, 1985
112 A.D.2d 958 (N.Y. App. Div. 1985)

Opinion

August 5, 1985

Appeal from the County Court, Nassau County (Collins, J.).


Judgment affirmed.

The court did not err when, for the purpose of impeaching defendant's credibility, it admitted testimony regarding statements voluntarily made by defendant at the time of his arrest, after he had testified in a manner inconsistent with the prior statements. ( People v. Harris, 25 N.Y.2d 175, affd 401 U.S. 222; People v Washington, 51 N.Y.2d 214; People v. Wise, 46 N.Y.2d 321; People v. Caban, 79 A.D.2d 1031.)

No objection was registered with respect to the portions of the prosecutor's summation and the court's charge of which defendant now complains and, therefore, he has failed to preserve the issues for appellate review as a matter of law. We decline to address them in the interest of justice.

We have reviewed the other issue raised by defendant and find it to be without merit. Mangano, J.P., Brown, O'Connor and Weinstein, JJ., concur.
