People v. Orr
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York
1Opinion of the Court
—Judgment unanimously affirmed. Memorandum: We reject defendant’s contention that County Court erred in its instructions on accomplice liability and reasonable doubt. Considering the whole charge on accomplice liability (People v Canty, 60 NY2d 830, 832), we conclude that it conveyed the proper standard to the jury (see, Penal Law § 20.00). There is no merit to defendant’s claim that the court’s charge on reasonable doubt diluted the People’s burden (see, People v Hill, 190 AD2d 990; see also, People v Hill, 154 AD2d 887, lv denied 75 NY2d 813).
