DECISION ORDER
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
Contrary to the defendant's contention, the trial court properly allowed testimony regarding previous confrontations between the defendant and the complainant. The evidence was introduced as background material needed to complete the narrative ( see People v. George, 292 A.D.2d 541; People v. Howard, 285 A.D.2d 560).
The defendant's contention that the trial court erred in failing to deliver a limiting instruction regarding the defendant's prior bad acts is unpreserved for appellate review as defense counsel did not request such an instruction or make an appropriate objection ( see People v. Jones, 182 A.D.2d 708, 709).
RITTER, J.P., SMITH, GOLDSTEIN and H. MILLER, JJ., concur.
