People v. Washington

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

1Opinion of the Court

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Owens, J.), rendered April 27, 1987, convicting him of robbery in the second degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the People (see, People v Contes, 60 NY2d 620, 621), we find that it was legally sufficient to establish the defendant’s guilt beyond reasonable doubt. Moreover, upon the exercise of our factual *560review power, we are satisfied that the verdict was not against the weight of the evidence (CPL 470.15 [5]).
