Decided on April 6, 2010
APPELLATE TERM OF THE SUPREME COURT, FIRST DEPARTMENT
PRESENT: McKeon, P.J., Shulman, Hunter, JJ
570821/07.

The People of the State of New York,

against

Maury Huger-Love,

Defendant appeals from a judgment of the Criminal Court of the City of New York, New York County (Richard Ross, JHO), rendered September 12, 2007, after a nonjury trial, convicting him of disorderly conduct, and imposing sentence.

Per Curiam.

Judgment of conviction (Richard Ross, JHO), rendered September 12, 2007, affirmed.

Defendant's present contention that he was denied the effective assistance of counsel in this Summons Part prosecution because his attorney did not deliver a summation to the court is not reviewable on this direct appeal from the judgment of conviction since it involves matters outside the record (see People v Rivera, 71 NY2d 705 [1988]). To the extent the record permits review of this contention, we find that defendant received effective assistance (see People v Benevento, 91 NY2d 708 [1998]; see also People v Aiken, 45 NY2d 394 [1978]; People v Brown, 175 AD2d 210 [1991]).

THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE COURT.
I concur
Decision Date: April 06, 2010
