[*1]THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, RESPONDENT,

v

BRYNDYN L. NEEL, DEFENDANT-APPELLANT.

J. SCOTT PORTER, SENECA FALLS, FOR DEFENDANT-APPELLANT.

JOHN NABINGER, DISTRICT ATTORNEY, WATERLOO (KEVIN URBAITIS OF COUNSEL), FOR RESPONDENT.

Appeal from a judgment of the Seneca County Court (Barry L. Porsch, J.), rendered April 26, 2023. The judgment convicted defendant, upon a jury verdict, of endangering the welfare of a child.

It is hereby ORDERED that the judgment so appealed from is unanimously affirmed.

Memorandum: Defendant appeals from a judgment convicting him, upon a jury verdict, of endangering the welfare of a child (Penal Law § 260.10 [1]). Viewing the evidence in light of the elements of the crime as charged to the jury (see People v Danielson, 9 NY3d 342, 349 [2007]), we reject defendant's sole contention on appeal that the verdict is against the weight of the evidence (see generally People v Bleakley, 69 NY2d 490, 495 [1987]; People v Sanderson, 68 AD3d 1716, 1717 [4th Dept 2009], lv denied 14 NY3d 844 [2010]).
