1Opinion of the Court

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the County Court, Westchester County (Cowhey, J.), rendered October 27, 1987, convicting him of criminal possession of a controlled substance in the third degree and criminal possession of a hypodermic instrument (two counts), upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

It is settled that a juror may be discharged as "grossly unqualified”…
