People v. DeLeon

Dec 4, 2007
Versions:46 A.D.3d 569
845 N.Y.S.2d 917

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Feldman, J.), rendered May 3, 2005, convicting him of manslaughter in the second degree and criminal possession of a weapon in the third degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

Contrary to the defendant‘s contention, the Supreme Court did not err in denying his request for a justification charge, as no reasonable view of the evidence supported the charge (see People v. Ojar, 38 AD3d 684 [2007]; People v. Brown, 33 AD3d 1016 [2006]).

The imposition of consecutive sentences was not illegal (see People v. Salcedo, 92 NY2d 1019 [1998]; People v. James, 271 AD2d 456 [2000]). Miller, J.P., Ritter, Skelos and Covello, JJ., concur.
