| The People of the State of New York,Respondent, v Shaniqua Hardmon, Appellant. |
—[*1] Richard A. Brown, District Attorney, Kew Gardens, N.Y. (John M. Castelleno, JanetteLifschitz, and Jaclyn Belson of counsel), for respondent.
Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Kohm, J.),rendered December 11, 2007, convicting her of robbery in the second degree, upon a juryverdict, and imposing sentence.
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
The defendant's contention that the evidence was legally insufficient to support herconviction of robbery in the second degree in violation of Penal Law § 160.10 (1) isunpreserved for appellate review (see CPL 470.05 [2]; People v Hawkins, 11 NY3d 484,492-493 [2008]; People v Finger, 95 NY2d 894, 895 [2000]). In any event, viewing theevidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution (see People v Contes, 60 NY2d620 [1983]), we find that it was legally sufficient to establish the defendant's guilt beyond areasonable doubt (see People v Carr-El, 287 AD2d 731, 732 [2001], affd 99NY2d 546 [2002]; People v Washington, 283 AD2d 661, 661-662 [2001]). Furthermore,upon our independent review pursuant to CPL 470.15 (5), we are satisfied that the verdict ofguilt was not against the weight of the evidence (see People v Romero, 7 NY3d 633 [2006]). Skelos, J.P.,Dickerson, Lott and Roman, JJ., concur.
