Opinion

—Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Gary, J.), rendered January 28, 2000, convicting him of criminal possession of a weapon in the fourth degree, after a non-jury trial, and imposing sentence.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

Moreover, upon the exercise of our factual review power, we are satisfied that the verdict of guilt was not against the weight of the evidence (see, CPL 470.15 [5]). Ritter, J. P., S. Miller, Feuerstein and Schmidt, JJ., concur.
