People v. Williams

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Nov 23, 1998
255 A.D.2d 534 (N.Y. App. Div. 1998)

Opinion

November 23, 1998

Appeal from the County Court, Suffolk County (Weber, J.).


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

There is no merit to the defendant's contention that the People violated the principle of Brady v. Maryland ( 373 U.S. 83) by failing to timely turn over a note written by a detective regarding his conversation with a witness. The defense was afforded ample opportunity to utilize the note at trial and there is no indication that disclosure at an earlier time would have had any effect on the outcome of the trial ( see, People v. Serrano, 242 A.D.2d 746; People v. White, 178 A.D.2d 674).

We have examined the defendant's remaining contentions and find them to be without merit.

Bracken, J. P., Ritter, Santucci and Altman, JJ., concur.
