| The People of the State of New York,Respondent, v Reginald Bell, Appellant. |
Lynn W.L. Fahey, New York, N.Y. (Jonathan M. Kratter of counsel), forappellant.
Daniel M. Donovan, Jr., District Attorney, Staten Island, N.Y. (Morrie I. Kleinbartand Paul M. Tarr of counsel), for respondent.
Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Richmond County(Rooney, J.), rendered January 4, 2012, convicting him of manslaughter in the firstdegree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
The defendant's contention that he was deprived of a fair trial due to certaincomments the prosecutor made on summation is unpreserved for appellate review(see CPL 470.05 [2]), because the defendant failed to object to the comments henow challenges (see People vRomero, 7 NY3d 911, 912 [2006]), or failed to request additional relief whenthe trial court sustained objections or provided curative instructions (see People vHeide, 84 NY2d 943, 944 [1994]; People v Bajana, 82 AD3d 1111, 1112 [2011]; People v Damon, 78 AD3d860, 861 [2010]). In any event, the comments did not deprive the defendant of a fairtrial (see People vJorgensen, 113 AD3d 793, 794 [2014]; People v Littlejohn, 112 AD3d 67, 77 [2013]). Balkin, J.P.,Roman, Sgroi and LaSalle, JJ., concur.
