Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York·Decided June 3, 2015·No. 2013-07273·Published·Cited by 2 cases

Opinion

Appeal by the defendant from an order of the Supreme Court, Suffolk County (Condon, J.), dated June 11, 2013, which denied, without a hearing, his motion pursuant to CPL 440.30 (1-a) for DNA testing of certain evidence.

Ordered that the order is affirmed.

The Supreme Court properly denied, without a hearing, the defendant’s motion pursuant to CPL 440.30 (1-a) for DNA testing of certain evidence, since the defendant failed to show that there was a reasonable probability that the verdict would have been more favorable to him had DNA tests been performed and the results admitted at trial (see CPL 440.30 [1-a]; People v Griffin, 121 AD3d 1127, 1127 [2014]; People v Johnson, 112 AD3d 969, 969-970 [2013]; People v Perry, 89 AD3d 1114, 1115 *749 [2011]; People v Bolling, 65 AD3d 1054, 1054 [2009]).

Eng, P.J., Leventhal, Hall and Roman, JJ., concur.
