PEOPLE v. WILLIAMS

ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.

Contrary to the defendant's contention, a witness's unequivocal identification of him during a canvass of the area where the crimes occurred gave the police probable cause to place him under arrest (see People v. Williams, 236 A.D.2d 642). Moreover, the defendant's argument that the identifications by the three complainants were the result of unduly suggestive police procedures is without merit (see People v. Dixon, 85 N.Y.2d 218; People v. Duuvon, 77 N.Y.2d 541).

The defendant was afforded the effective assistance of counsel. "[T]he evidence, the law, and the circumstances of [the] case, viewed in totality and as of the time of the representation, reveal that the attorney provided meaningful representation" (People v. Baldi, 54 N.Y.2d 137, 147).

The defendant's remaining contentions are either unpreserved for appellate review or without merit.
