276 A.D.2d 727 (N.Y. App. Div. 2000)

Opinion

Argued September 25, 2000

October 24, 2000.

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Lebowitz, J.), rendered June 17, 1997, convicting him of criminal possession of a weapon in the third degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence .

M. Sue Wycoff, New York, N.Y. (Steven J. Miraglia of counsel), for appellant, and appellant pro se.

Charles J. Hynes, District Attorney, Brooklyn, N.Y. (Leonard Joblove and Florence M. Sullivan of counsel), for respondent.

Before: LAWRENCE J. BRACKEN, J.P., FRED T. SANTUCCI, WILLIAM C. THOMPSON, THOMAS R. SULLIVAN, JJ.


DECISION ORDER

ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.

Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution (see, People v. Contes, 60 N.Y.2d 620), we find that it was legally sufficient to establish the defendant's guilt of criminal possession of a weapon in the third degree beyond a reasonable doubt (see, People v. Manini, 79 N.Y.2d 561; People v. David, 234 A.D.2d 787). Moreover, upon the exercise of our factual review power, we are satisfied that the verdict of guilt was not against the weight of the evidence (see, CPL 470.15).

The sentence imposed was not excessive (see, People v. Suitte, 90 A.D.2d 80).

The defendant's remaining contentions, including those raised in his supplemental pro se brief, are unpreserved for appellate review, not properly before us, or without merit.
