PEOPLE v. CABRERA

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department.
Oct 12, 2004

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

Although the prosecutor improperly questioned the defendant regarding a third person's uncharged crime, the trial court providently exercised its discretion in denying the defendant's motion for a mistrial. The trial court's curative instruction alleviated any prejudice to the defendant ( see People v. Santiago, 52 NY2d 865; People v. Torres, 302 AD2d 411; People v. Hernandez, 240 AD2d 759; People v. Caban, 224. AD2d 705 [1996]).
