People v. Robinson

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Sep 28, 1987
133 A.D.2d 474 (N.Y. App. Div. 1987)

Opinion

September 28, 1987

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


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

We agree with the hearing court's conclusion that the police action in this case was reasonable and proper, that the police possessed the requisite probable cause to arrest the defendant and that the guns seized from inside and from underneath the car occupied by the defendant were admissible in evidence (see, e.g., People v. Finlayson, 76 A.D.2d 670, lv denied 51 N.Y.2d 1011, cert denied 450 U.S. 931; People v. Sanders, 79 A.D.2d 688).

Upon the exercise of our factual review power we find, contrary to the contentions raised by the defendant in his pro se brief, that the evidence of his guilt of the crimes charged was proven beyond a reasonable doubt and that the verdict was not against the weight of the evidence (CPL 470.15). Furthermore, the sentence imposed was not excessive. Weinstein, J.P., Rubin, Kooper and Sullivan, JJ., concur.
