People v. Whitted

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Aug 14, 1989
153 A.D.2d 651 (N.Y. App. Div. 1989)

Opinion

August 14, 1989

Appeal from the County Court, Dutchess County (King, J.).


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant's contention, inter alia, that he was denied his due process right to a fair trial because of specific instances of prosecutorial misconduct is without merit. Of those allegedly prejudicial remarks of the prosecutor during summation which were properly preserved for appellate review (see, People v. Medina, 53 N.Y.2d 951), none exceeded the bounds of permissible rhetorical comment (see, People v. Galloway, 54 N.Y.2d 396).

We have examined the defendant's remaining contentions raised by his attorney and by him pro se and find them to be either without merit or unpreserved for appellate review. Kooper, J.P., Spatt, Harwood and Rosenblatt, JJ., concur.
