People v. Thompson

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Feb 25, 1985
108 A.D.2d 942 (N.Y. App. Div. 1985)

Opinion

February 25, 1985

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


Judgment affirmed.

Defendant's guilt was proven beyond a reasonable doubt ( People v Contes, 60 N.Y.2d 620). He waived his right to challenge the officer's failure to preserve the handwritten notes of said officer, listing the denominations and serial numbers of the buy money, when he subsequently pleaded guilty to the remaining counts of the indictment ( People v Manzo, 99 A.D.2d 817). The prosecutor did not withhold any information from the Grand Jury which would have materially influenced its investigation ( see, People v Monroe, 125 Misc.2d 550; People v Filis, 87 Misc.2d 1067). The sentence imposed was not excessive in light of the large quantities of marihuana recovered by the police.

We have reviewed defendant's remaining contentions and find them to be either unpreserved for appellate review or without merit. Titone, J.P., O'Connor, Lawrence and Eiber, JJ., concur.
