People v. Torres

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
May 23, 1988
140 A.D.2d 654 (N.Y. App. Div. 1988)

Opinion

May 23, 1988

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Kings County (Heller, J.).


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution (see, People v Contes, 60 N.Y.2d 620), we find that it was legally sufficient to establish the defendant's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. Moreover, upon the exercise of our factual review power, we are satisfied that the verdict of guilt was not against the weight of the evidence (CPL 470.15).

We have examined the defendant's remaining contentions, including those raised in his supplemental pro se brief, and find them to be without merit. Weinstein, J.P., Rubin, Spatt and Sullivan, JJ., concur.
