297 A.D.2d 607 (N.Y. App. Div. 2002)

Opinion

1651

September 26, 2002.

Judgment, Supreme Court, Bronx County (Robert Cohen, J.), rendered December 19, 1996, convicting defendant, after a nonjury trial, of sexual abuse in the first degree and endangering the welfare of a child, and sentencing him to concurrent terms of 2 to 6 years and 1 year, respectively, unanimously affirmed.

ASMA WARSI CHAUDRY, for respondent.

LISA LEWIS, for defendant-appellant.

Before: Mazzarelli, J.P., Andrias, Buckley, Sullivan, Lerner, JJ.


The verdict as to both counts was based on legally sufficient evidence and was not against the weight of the evidence (People v. Bleakley, 69 N.Y.2d 490). Issues concerning credibility, including alleged motives to falsify and minor inconsistencies, and concerning the evaluation of medical testimony, were properly considered by the court and we see no reason to disturb its determination.

THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE SUPREME COURT, APPELLATE DIVISION, FIRST DEPARTMENT.
