Defendant was not deprived of a fair trial by the prosecutor's remarks in summation, as they reflected arguments

- 2 - No. 101 that were fairly inferable from the evidence adduced at trial. Further, we agree with the courts below that the notes taken during the interviews of an unindicted alleged coconspirator were not subject to disclosure under Brady v Maryland (373 US 83 [1963]) because, contrary to defendant's contention, the notes were not exculpatory as to defendant's convictions of criminal tax fraud in the first degree and offering a false instrument for filing in the first degree.
