People v. Hazel

270 A.D.2d 130, 706 N.Y.S.2d 307, 2000 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 3012

Opinion

—Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (Michael Obús, J.), rendered December 18, 1995, convicting defendant, after a jury trial, of criminal possession of stolen property in the third degree, possession of burglar’s tools and resisting arrest, and sentencing him, as a second felony offender, to concurrent terms of 3 to 6 years, 1 year and 1 year, respectively, unanimously affirmed.

The verdict was based on legally sufficient evidence and was not against the weight of the evidence (People v Bleakley, 69 NY2d 490). Credibility and identification issues were properly placed before the jury and we find no reason to disturb its findings. Concur — Nardelli, J. P., Tom, Mazzarelli, Andrias and Buckley, JJ.
