PEOPLE v. GRAVES

Ordered that the order is affirmed.

In support of that branch of his motion which was pursuant to CPL 440.10 to vacate the judgment against him, the defendant contended that the prosecution committed a Brady violation ( see Brady v Maryland, 373 US 83) by failing to disclose that one of its witnesses at trial had prior arrests and convictions under a different name. Since this contention was either raised, or could have been raised, in the context of a first, unsuccessful motion pursuant to CPL 440.10 made by the defendant, it was within the Supreme Court's discretion to deny, without a hearing, that branch of the defendant's current motion ( see CPL 440.10 [b], [c]; People v Cochrane, 27 AD3d 659, 660, cert denied 538 US 1060). In any event, there is no reasonable possibility that the nondisclosure affected the outcome of the trial ( see People v Pressley, 91 NY2d 825; People v Vilardi, 76 NY2d 67; People v McGee, 232 AD2d 429).

Further, contrary to the defendant's contention in support of that branch of his motion which was, in effect, pursuant to CPL 440.20, the consecutive sentences imposed were not illegal. The evidence at trial established that the crimes involved separate and distinct acts against separate victims ( see People v Brathwaite, 63 NY2d 839, 843; People v Boone, 30 AD3d 535, 536; People v Maldonado, 5 AD3d 505, 506-507; People v Porter, 256 AD2d 363, 364).
