People v. Jackson
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, Queens County (McCann, J.), rendered January 13, 1995, convicting him of assault in the second 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 trial court did not err in refusing to give a justification charge with respect to the circumstances under which non-deadly physical force could be used (see, e.g., People v Parham, 238 AD2d 446; cf., People v Ogodor, 207 AD2d 461; People v Jones, 148 AD2d 547).
