Opinion

The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Dane Boyra, Appellant. [722 NYS2d 417] [MAJORITY] —Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Firetog, J.), rendered December 20, 1994, convicting him of attempted robbery in the second degree and assault in the second degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence. Ordered that the judgment is affirmed. Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the People (see, People v Contes, 60 NY2d 620), we find that it was legally sufficient to establish the defendant’s guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. Moreover, upon the exercise of our factual review power, we are satisfied that the verdict of guilt was not against the weight of the evidence (see, CPL 470.15 [5]). Bracken, P. J., O’Brien, Goldstein and McGinity, JJ., concur.
