THE PEOPLE, ETC., respondent, v. ARTURO MORALES, appellant.

DECISION ORDER

ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.

The majority of the defendant's challenges to the prosecutor's remarks on summation are unpreserved for appellate review ( see People v. Campbell, 271 A.D.2d 693; People v. Lamour, 203 A.D.2d 388). In any event, the remarks made by the prosecutor do not require reversal. They were proper responses to arguments made by the defense counsel during summation and were fair comment on the evidence ( see People v. Campbell, supra; People v. Lamour, supra). Moreover, "those comments to which objections were registered were followed by curative instructions, subsequent to which the defendant neither asked for further curative instructions nor moved for a mistrial, thereby indicating that the court had sufficiently cured any error to his satisfaction" ( People v. Rosario, 195 A.D.2d 577).

RITTER, J.P., SMITH, GOLDSTEIN and H. MILLER, JJ., concur.
