The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Sean Ward, Appellant.
[996 NYS2d 913]

Judgment, Supreme Court, Bronx County (Richard Lee Price, J.), rendered on September 26, 2011, convicting defendant, after a nonjury trial, of attempted patronizing of a prostitute in the third degree, and sentencing him to a term of 10 days, unanimously affirmed.

After reviewing the record and independently assessing all of the proof, we find that the verdict was not against the weight of the evidence (see People v Danielson, 9 NY3d 342 , 348-349 [2007]). The finder of fact found that the officer’s account was more credible than defendant’s.

Concur — Mazzarelli, J.P., Andrias, Manzanet-Daniels, Feinman and Gische, JJ.
