People v. Pilgrim
Opinion
Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Egitto, J.), rendered January 16, 1996, convicting him of assault in the second degree and criminal possession of a weapon in the fourth degree (two counts), upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
Contrary to the defendant’s contentions, the trial court correctly declined to charge assault in the third degree as a lesser included offense of assault in the first degree (see, People v Martin, 59 NY2d 704; People v Glover, 57 NY2d 61; People v Berry, 123 AD2d 477; People v Greene, 111 AD2d 183; People v Higgins, 124 AD2d 966; People v Palmer, 197 AD2d 712; cf., People v Fasano, 107 AD2d 1052; People v Fugaro, 96 AD 2d 659).
The defendant’s remaining contentions, including those raised in his pro se supplemental brief, are either unpreserved for appellate review, without merit, or based on matter dehors the record.
