Opinion

The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Felix Serrano, Appellant. [616 NYS2d 1012] [MAJORITY] Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the County Court, Suffolk County (Namm, J.), rendered February 6, 1992, convicting him of robbery in the first degree and robbery 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 prosecution (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 (CPL 470.15 [5]). We have considered the defendant’s remaining contentions and find them to be without merit. Bracken, J. P., Balletta, Copertino and Hart, JJ., concur.
