People v. Whitted

124 A.D.2d 846 Court N.Y. App. Div. Decision date 1986-11-24 English

Majority

p. 846
The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Leonard Whitted, Appellant.

The evidence adduced at trial was sufficient to permit a rational trier of facts to find the defendant guilty beyond a reasonable doubt (see, People v Contes, 60 NY2d 620 ). The mere existence of conflicting evidence did not preclude the defendant’s conviction (see, People v Kennedy, 47 NY2d 196 ) and the jury’s findings on the issues of credibility are to be accorded the greatest weight on appeal (see, People v Malizia, 62 NY2d 755 , cert denied 469 US 932 ). Mollen, P. J., Brown, Niehoff and Kooper, JJ., concur.
