The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Lorraine Brown, Appellant.
[598 NYS2d 738]

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the County Court, Westchester County (LaCava, J.) rendered July 16, 1991, convicting her of assault in the first degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant Lorraine Brown was one of three women who took part in a concerted attack on the victim (see, People v Allums, 193 AD2d 687 [decided herewith]; People v Allums, 193 AD2d 688 [decided herewith]).

Contrary to the arguments of the defendant Lorraine Brown, the verdict was not repugnant (see, People v Allums, 193 AD2d 688 , supra), the CPL 710.30 notice furnished by the People was sufficient to inform her of the sum and substance of her pretrial statement (see, People v Murphy, 163 AD2d 425 ; People v Holmes, 170 AD2d 534 ), and the trial court took adequate curative measures when it discovered that some

jurors were taking notes (see, People v Stewart, 179 AD2d 731 ; People v Valenti, 163 AD2d 441 ; People v DiLuca, 85 AD2d 439 ).

The defendant’s remaining arguments are also without merit. Bracken, J. P., Lawrence, Eiber and Pizzuto, JJ., concur.
