People v. Bell

Mar 25, 2015

2012-00538

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant‘s contention that he was deprived of a fair trial due to certain comments the prosecutor made on summation is unpreserved for appellate review (see CPL 470.05 [2]), because the defendant failed to object to the comments he now challenges (see People v Romero, 7 NY3d 911, 912 [2006]), or failed to request additional relief when the trial court sustained objections or provided curative instructions (see People v Heide, 84 NY2d 943, 944 [1994]; People v Bajana, 82 AD3d 1111, 1112 [2011]; People v Damon, 78 AD3d 860, 861 [2010]). In any event, the comments did not deprive the defendant of a fair trial (see People v Jorgensen, 113 AD3d 793, 794 [2014]; People v Littlejohn, 112 AD3d 67, 77 [2013]). Balkin, J.P., Roman, Sgroi and LaSalle, JJ., concur.
