People v. Torres

170 A.D.2d 314, 566 N.Y.S.2d 851, 1991 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 2192

Opinion

Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (Joan Sudolnik, J.), rendered July 12, 1989, convicting defendant, after a jury trial, of criminal sale of a controlled substance in the third degree and criminal possession of a controlled substance in the seventh degree, and sentencing him to concurrent terms of imprisonment of from 6 to 12 years and one year, respectively, unanimously affirmed.

The trial court’s refusal, in response to a request by a jury, to permit a readback of defense counsel’s summation was not an abuse of discretion (People v Sullivan, 160 AD2d 161). Concur—Murphy, P. J., Rosenberger, Wallach, Kupferman and Smith, JJ.
