People v. Turner

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Apr 3, 1989
149 A.D.2d 446 (N.Y. App. Div. 1989)

Opinion

April 3, 1989

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


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant contends that on several occasions during his trial the Trial Judge engaged in conduct which served to deprive him of a fair trial. With the exception of a single instance where the Trial Judge sustained the prosecutor's objection to a portion of the defendant's summation, any issue of law with respect thereto was not preserved for appellate review because the defendant was required to register objections to the challenged conduct (CPL 470.05; People v Charleston, 56 N.Y.2d 886). In any event, we find that the court's conduct during the defendant's summation did not deprive him of a fair trial. The defendant's remaining contentions do not require reversal. Mangano, J.P., Lawrence, Spatt and Harwood, JJ., concur.
