CourtNew York Court of Appeals Court of Appeals

Appeal from Supreme Court, Appellate Division, Second Department, 8 A.D.2d 835, 190 N.Y.S.2d 625.

Defendant was convicted of robbery in the first degree, assault in the second degree, and petit larceny. The County Court of Kings County, Samuel S. Leibowitz, J., rendered judgment, and defendant was sentenced as a second felony offender for a term of 30 to 60 years, and he appealed.

The Appellate Division unanimously affirmed the judgment without opinion.

The defendant appealed to the Court of Appeals, contending that he was deprived of a fair trial, that charge to the jury was reversibly erroneous and inadequate, that he was improperly deprived of his right to counsel and his constitutional rights to due process were thereby infringed, and that judgment of conviction should be reversed and a new trial granted.

Nathan Kestnbaum, New York City, for defendant-appellant.

Edward S. Silver, Brooklyn (Frank Di Lalla, Brooklyn, of counsel), for respondents.

Judgment affirmed.

All concur.
