People v. Peters
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York
Decided July 15, 1991PublishedCited by 8 opinions
1Opinion of the Court
— Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Slavin, J.), rendered January 11, 1989, convicting him of criminal possession of a controlled substance in the second degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
Since defense counsel merely made a general objection and did not raise the specific factual or legal basis for his objection, the defendant has failed to preserve for appellate review his claim that the trial court improperly discharged a juror (see, CPL 470.05 [2]; cf., People v Jackson, 149 AD2d 532).
