Citation | 786 N.Y.S.2d 321,13 A.D.3d 642,2004 NY Slip Op 09657 |
Parties | THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, Respondent, v. FRANK DELACRUZ, Appellant. |

An alleged deprivation of the constitutional right to counsel at a lineup may be raised on appeal, irrespective of whether such claim has been preserved for appellate review (see People v Kinchen, 60 NY2d 772, 773 [1983]; People v Samuels, 49 NY2d 218, 221 [1980]). However, since the defendant did not raise this issue at the pretrial suppression hearing, the record is insufficient to review it on appeal (see People v Kinchen, supra at 773-774).
