Majority

The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Roland Rouse, Appellant.

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Curci, J.), rendered June 11, 1984, convicting him of grand larceny in the third degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

Viewed in a light most favorable to the People (see, People v Shapiro, 117 AD2d 688 , lv denied 67 NY2d 950 ; People v Bauer, 113 AD2d 543 , 548, lv denied 67 NY2d 648 , and 67 NY2d 880 ), the evidence was legally sufficient to establish that the defendant stole property from the person of the complainant (Penal Law § 155.30 [5]). Moreover, upon the exercise of our factual review power we are satisfied that the evidence was of sufficient quality and quantity to establish the defendant’s guilt beyond a reasonable doubt (CPL 470.15 [5]). Thompson, J. P., Brown, Niehoff and Rubin, JJ., concur.
