17 A.D.3d 488

People v. Pinnock

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York · decided 2005-04-11

Decided 2005-04-11

¶1Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (J. Goldberg, J.), rendered December 6, 2002, convicting him of burglary in the first degree, rape in the first degree (two counts), sodomy in the first degree (three counts), and criminal possession of stolen property in the fifth degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

¶2Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

¶3The defendant’s contention that he was denied the effective assistance of counsel is without merit. On this record, we find that he was afforded meaningful representation (see People v Stultz, 2 NY3d 277 [2004]; People v Henry, 95 NY2d 563 [2000]; People v Baldi, 54 NY2d 137 [1981]).

¶4The sentence imposed was not excessive (see People v Suitte, 90 AD2d 80 [1982]).

¶5The defendant’s remaining contention is without merit. Cozier, J.P., Ritter, Spolzino and Lifson, JJ., concur.
