People v. Williams

Judgment unanimously affirmed. Memorandum: We conclude that defendant’s conviction is supported by legally sufficient evidence and is not against the weight of the evidence {see, People v Bleakley, 69 NY2d 490 , 495). We further conclude that the evidence, the law and the circumstances of this case, viewed in totality and as of the time of the representation, establish that defendant received meaningful representation {see, People v Baldi, 54 NY2d 137 , 147). (Appeal from Judgment of Erie County Court, LaMendola, J.—Forgery, 2nd Degree.) Present— Lawton, J. P., Fallon, Callahan, Doerr and Balio, JJ.
