p. 326The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Alex Hines, Appellant. [671 NYS2d 295]
—Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Roman, J.), rendered February 14, 1996, convicting him of grand larceny in the fourth degree, criminal possession of stolen property in the fourth degree, criminal possession of stolen property in the fifth degree, criminal mischief in the third degree, auto stripping in the second degree, and unauthorized use of a vehicle in the second degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
The defendant’s contention that the evidence was legally
p. 327
insufficient to support the verdict is not preserved for appellate review (see, CPL 470.05[2]; People v Udzinski, 146 AD2d 245 ). In any event, viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution (see, People v Contes, 60 NY2d 620 ), we find that it was legally sufficient to establish the defendant’s guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. Moreover, upon the exercise of our factual review power, we are satisfied that the verdict of guilt was not against the weight of the evidence (see, CPL 470.15 [5]).
The defendant’s remaining contention is without merit. Copertino, J. P., Santucci, Krausman and Florio, JJ., concur.
