People v. Hernandez

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Jul 26, 2000
273 A.D.2d 479 (N.Y. App. Div. 2000)

Opinion

Argued May 11, 2000.

July 26, 2000.

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Buchter, J.), rendered June 9, 1997, convicting him of attempted murder in the second degree, assault in the first degree, and tampering with physical evidence, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

Lynn W. L. Fahey, New York, N.Y. (Warren S. Landau of counsel), for appellant.

Richard A. Brown, District Attorney, Kew Gardens, N.Y. (John M. Castellano and Emil Bricker of counsel), for respondent.

Before: LAWRENCE J. BRACKEN, J.P., CORNELIUS J. O'BRIEN, WILLIAM C. THOMPSON, ANITA R. FLORIO, JJ.


DECISION ORDER

ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.

The trial court did not err in failing to charge the jury on attempted manslaughter in the first degree as a lesser included offense of attempted murder in the second degree, based upon the affirmative defense of extreme emotional disturbance, since the defendant failed to request that charge (see, People v. Goros, 224 A.D.2d 444).

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

The defendant's remaining contentions are either unpreserved for appellate review or without merit.
