Opinion
October 15, 1998
Appeal from the Supreme Court, New York County (Richard Carruthers, J.).
Defendant's challenge to certain testimony by the People's expert on drug operations is unpreserved and we decline to review it in the interest of justice. Interest of justice review is particularly inappropriate where, as here, the testimony was largely elicited by defendant ( see, People v. Adams, 184 A.D.2d 227, lv denied 80 N.Y.2d 926) and was exploited by defendant to his advantage at trial ( see, People v. Flores, 210 A.D.2d 1, lv denied 84 N.Y.2d 1031).
