People v. Hurd, 200 A.D.2d 521, 606 N.Y.S.2d 670, 1994 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 594 (N.Y. Ct. App. 1994).

Opinion

—Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (Edward McLaughlin, J.), rendered December 9, 1987, convicting defendant, after a jury trial, of criminal possession of marijuana in the first degree, and sentencing him to a term of 4 to 12 years, unanimously affirmed.

[522]*522The admission of evidence of defendant’s possession of a large sum of money at the time of arrest, though error, was harmless in light of the overwhelming evidence of his guilt (see, People v Cotto, 169 AD2d 517). Further, in view of the presumption of regularity, and in the absence of proof to the contrary, we conclude that the court had access to a presentence report prior to sentencing the defendant in absentia (see, People v Kalakowski, 120 AD2d 763, 765). Concur — Carro, J. P., Ellerin, Asch and Nardelli, JJ.
