People v. Kirk

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Mar 28, 1988
138 A.D.2d 747 (N.Y. App. Div. 1988)

Opinion

March 28, 1988

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Queens County (Shea, J.).


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The court charged the jury that character evidence, taken into consideration with all the other evidence adduced at trial, could be sufficient to raise a reasonable doubt as to the defendant's guilt. This aspect of the charge contains no error prejudicial to the defendant (see, People v. Miller, 35 N.Y.2d 65; People v Aharonowicz, 133 A.D.2d 117, vacating 125 A.D.2d 682). Mangano, J.P., Bracken, Lawrence and Spatt, JJ., concur.
