The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Donald Barham, Appellant.
[696 NYS2d 905]

—Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the County Court, Putnam County (Braatz, J.), rendered March 11, 1998, convicting him of robbery in the first degree and robbery in the second degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

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 sentence imposed was not excessive (see, People v Suitte, 90 AD2d 80 ).

The defendant’s remaining contentions are without merit. Thompson, J. P., Joy, McGinity and Feuerstein, JJ., concur.
