The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v John Woska, Appellant.
[738 NYS2d 596]

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the County Court, Rockland County (Meehan, J.), rendered June 1, 2000, convicting him of sexual abuse in the first degree, after a nonjury trial, 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 either unpreserved for appellate review (see, CPL 470.05 [2]), or without merit. S. Miller, J.P., Schmidt, Crane and Cozier, JJ., concur.
