Opinion
August 15, 1988
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Queens County (Groh, J.).
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
Contrary to the defendant's contention, it was not error to place him in a prearraignment lineup, without the presence of counsel, despite the arresting officer's knowledge that the defendant was represented by an attorney on an unrelated, pending matter (see, People v Hernandez, 70 N.Y.2d 833; People v Hawkins, 55 N.Y.2d 474, cert denied 459 U.S. 846; People v Williams, 122 A.D.2d 820, lv denied 68 N.Y.2d 818; People v Rodriguez, 121 A.D.2d 660, lv denied 68 N.Y.2d 917; People v Cunningham, 116 A.D.2d 585, lv denied 67 N.Y.2d 941). Lawrence, J.P., Kooper, Harwood and Balletta, JJ., concur.
