219 A.D.2d 840 (N.Y. App. Div. 1995)

Opinion

September 29, 1995

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Erie County, Kubiniec, J.

Present — Pine, J.P., Fallon, Wesley, Doerr and Davis, JJ.


Judgment unanimously affirmed. Memorandum: Upon our review of the record, we conclude that the jury did not fail to give the evidence the weight it should have been accorded and that the verdict is not against the weight of the evidence (see, People v Bleakley, 69 N.Y.2d 490, 495).

In view of defendant's extensive criminal record and history of anti-social behavior, we further conclude that Supreme Court did not abuse its discretion in sentencing defendant as a persistent felony offender to two concurrent indeterminate terms of imprisonment of 15 years to life for his conviction of unauthorized use of a vehicle in the second degree (Penal Law § 165.06) and criminal possession of stolen properly in the fourth degree (Penal Law § 165.45).
