People v. Ezell

236 A.D.2d 337, 655 N.Y.S.2d 332, 1997 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 1668

Opinion

—Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (Mary McGowan Davis, J.), rendered April 7, 1994, convicting defendant, after a jury trial, of criminal possession of a weapon in the third degree, and sentencing him, as a second felony offender, to a term of 2 to 4 years, unanimously affirmed.

The record supports the trial court’s determination that the official court interpreter acted properly (see, People v Nedal, 198 AD2d 42). The court appropriately instructed the interpreter, and further directed that a readback be conducted, which clarified that the record was accurate. Thus, any instances of possibly improper translation were rectified. Concur—Milonas, J. P., Ellerin, Nardelli and Tom, JJ.
