The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v David Jordan, Also Known as David Griffith, Appellant.
[619 NYS2d 617]

—Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Goldman, J.), rendered June 19, 1992, convicting him of criminal possession of a controlled substance in the second degree, criminal possession of a controlled substance in the third degree, and Criminally using drug paraphernalia in the second degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

Based on our review of the record, we find the defendant’s statutory right to a speedy trial was not violated (see, CPL 30.30; People v Bolden, 81 NY2d 146 ; People v Cortes, 80 NY2d 201 ; People v Palacios, 79 NY2d 897 ; People v Ali, 195 AD2d 368 , lv denied 82 NY2d 804 ; People v Garrett, 171 AD2d 153 ). Further, the court did not err when it denied, on the eve of trial, the defendant’s requests for new counsel or to proceed pro se (see, People v Sides, 75 NY2d 822 ; People v Smith, 68 NY2d 737 ; People v Davis, 49 NY2d 114 ; People v Medina, 44 NY2d 199 ; People v McIntyre, 36 NY2d 10 ; People v Branch, 155 AD2d 473 ; People v Moore, 153 AD2d 702 ; People v Glover, 90 AD2d 776 ).

The defendant’s remaining contentions are either unpreserved for appellate review or without merit. Bracken, J. P., Miller, Lawrence and Santucci, JJ., concur.
