People v. Velez

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, First Department
Jul 1, 1997
241 A.D.2d 331 (N.Y. App. Div. 1997)

Opinion

July 1, 1997

Appeal from the Supreme Court, New York County (Alfred Kleiman, J.).


The verdict was based on legally sufficient evidence and was not against the weight of the evidence. We see no reason to disturb the jury's determinations as to the reliability of identification testimony. The court's Sandoval ruling was a proper exercise of discretion ( see, People v. Walker, 83 N.Y.2d 455, 459; People v. Pavao, 59 N.Y.2d 282).

We perceive no abuse of sentencing discretion.

Concur — Rosenberger, J. P., Nardelli, Williams and Mazzarelli, JJ.
