People v Rex Okhayan

People v Okhayan 2006 NY Slip Op 03116 [28 AD3d 793] April 25, 2006 Appellate Division, Second Department Published by New York State Law Reporting Bureau pursuant to Judiciary Law § 431. As corrected through Wednesday, June 21, 2006

The People of the State of New York, Respondent,
v
Rex Okhayan, Appellant.

—[*1]Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the County Court, Nassau County (Carter, J.), rendered January 13, 2004, convicting him grand larceny 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, we find that it was legally sufficient to establish the defendant's guilt of grand larceny in the second degree beyond a reasonable doubt (see People v Contes, 60 NY2d 620 [1983]; Penal Law § 155.40 [1]). 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 contentions are without merit. Adams, J.P., Mastro, Fisher and Covello, JJ., concur.
