Opinion
May 21, 1990
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Kings County (Broomer, J.).
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
Contrary to the defendant's contention, the trial court did not err when it charged the jury that the sexual contact necessary in order to establish the crime of sexual abuse in the first degree could consist of contact made through the victim's clothing as well as by direct contact (see, People v. Scott, 124 A.D.2d 974).
We have examined the defendant's remaining contentions and find them to be without merit. Thompson, J.P., Bracken, Lawrence and Kunzeman, JJ., concur.
