1Opinion of the Court
Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (Arlene R. Silverman, J.), rendered August 8, 2000, convicting defendant, after a jury trial, of criminal possession of a controlled substance in the first degree, and sentencing him to a term of 15 years to life, unanimously affirmed.
The court’s amendment of the indictment, which moderately enlarged the time frame of defendant’s possession of the cocaine, did not “change the theory or theories of the prosecution as reflected in the evidence before the grand jury which filed such indictment, or otherwise tend to prejudice the defendant on the merits”…
