PEOPLE v. PAYNE

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant failed to preserve for appellate review her argument that the evidence was not legally sufficient to establish her guilt because it did not support a finding that she was capable of having the necessary mental states required for commission of the crimes ( see CPL 470.05). In any event, 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. Furthermore, upon the exercise of our factual review power ( see CPL 470.15), we are satisfied that the verdict of guilt was not against the weight of the evidence ( see People v Romero, 7 NY3d 633).

The defendant's contention that the verdict was repugnant is unpreserved for appellate review and, in any event, is without merit ( see People v Tucker, 55 NY2d 1). Finally, the sentence imposed was not excessive ( see People v Suitte, 90 AD2d 80).
