Opinion

KA 01-02055

November 15, 2002.

Appeal from a judgment of Onondaga County Court (Walsh, J.), entered August 22, 2001, convicting defendant after a jury trial of robbery in the first degree.

FRANK H. HISCOCK LEGAL AID SOCIETY, SYRACUSE (PHILIP ROTHSCHILD OF COUNSEL), FOR DEFENDANT-APPELLANT.

WILLIAM J. FITZPATRICK, DISTRICT ATTORNEY, SYRACUSE (JAMES P. MAXWELL OF COUNSEL), FOR PLAINTIFF-RESPONDENT.

PRESENT: GREEN, J.P., WISNER, HURLBUTT, BURNS, AND GORSKI, JJ.


MEMORANDUM AND ORDER

It is hereby ORDERED that the judgment so appealed from be and the same hereby is unanimously affirmed.

Memorandum:

The evidence, viewed in the light most favorable to the People ( see People v. Contes, 60 N.Y.2d 620, 621), is legally sufficient to support defendant's conviction of robbery in the first degree (s ee Penal Law § 160.15). Upon our review of the record, we conclude that the verdict is not against the weight of the evidence ( see People v. Bleakley, 69 N.Y.2d 490, 495). We have examined defendant's remaining contention and conclude that it lacks merit.
