THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, Respondent, v. JOEY L. BROWN, Appellant.

It is hereby ordered that the judgment so appealed from be and the same hereby is unanimously affirmed.

Memorandum: Defendant appeals from a judgment convicting him after a jury trial of one count of burglary in the first degree (Penal Law § 140.30) and two counts of robbery in the second degree (§ 160.10 [1], [2] [a]). Contrary to defendant's contention, the verdict is not against the weight of the evidence ( see generally People v. Bleakley, 69 NY2d 490, 495 [1987]). According great deference to the jury's opportunity to "view the witnesses, hear the testimony and observe demeanor" ( id.), we conclude that the jury was entitled to credit the victim's identification testimony and to reject the alibi testimony presented by defendant. The sentence is not unduly harsh or severe.
