People v. Dardain

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Apr 15, 1996
226 A.D.2d 551 (N.Y. App. Div. 1996)

Opinion

April 15, 1996

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Kings County (Goldstein, J.).


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant has not preserved for appellate review his claims that the prosecution's summation remarks improperly bolstered the People's witnesses, misrepresented the position of the defense, and denigrated the defendant ( see, CPL 470.05; People v Vasquez, 198 A.D.2d 460; People v. Miller, 183 A.D.2d 790, 791). In any event, in light of the overwhelming evidence of guilt, any prosecutorial misconduct complained of would constitute harmless error ( see, People v. Weaver, 183 A.D.2d 797; People v. Gibbs, 166 A.D.2d 454).

The sentence imposed was not excessive ( see, People v. Suitte, 90 A.D.2d 80). Miller, J.P., O'Brien, Copertino and Pizzuto, JJ., concur.
