People v. Harvey

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York

Decided March 21, 1994Published

1Opinion of the Court

—Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Kreindler, J.), rendered July 11, 1991, convicting her of assault in the first degree, and criminal possession of a weapon in the fourth degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant stabbed the complainant with a kitchen knife in his apartment and fled. On the record before us we conclude there is no basis to credit the defendant’s claim of ineffective assistance of counsel (see, People v Colon, 138 AD2d 392, 393; see also, People v Oquendo, 112 AD2d 955, 956).
