People v. White

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, First Department

255 A.D.2d 164 (N.Y. App. Div. 1998)

Opinion

November 12, 1998

Appeal from the Supreme Court, New York County (Ira Beal, J.).


Defendant's suppression motion was properly denied. We see no reason to disturb the court's credibility determinations, which are supported by the record. The arresting officer's testimony that he had received a radio transmission from an undercover officer indicating a "positive buy" had taken place, and providing a detailed and accurate description of the seller, his location and direction of travel given by two undercover officers, was sufficient to justify defendant's arrest ( see, People v. Washington, 87 N.Y.2d 945, People v. Petralia, 62 N.Y.2d 47, 52). We have considered and rejected defendant's remaining contentions.

Concur — Milonas, J. P., Rosenberger, Williams, Tom and Saxe, JJ.
