PEOPLE v. SINGH

ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant's objections to the allegedly prejudicial comments made by the prosecutor in his cross-examination of defense witnesses and his summation are largely unpreserved for appellate review (see CPL 470.05), or are without merit (see People v. Galloway, 54 N.Y.2d 396; People v. Ashwal, 39 N.Y.2d 105). Moreover, the trial court sustained objections made by the defense counsel to those comments which were improper, and gave curative instructions to the jury. While the prosecutor did imbue his cross-examination as well as his summation remarks with sarcasm, this did not require reversal (see People v. Overlee, 236 A.D.2d 133) . Any errors regarding the prosecutor's cross-examination of defense witnesses or on summation were harmless in light of the overwhelming evidence of the defendant's guilt (see People v. Crimmins, 36 N.Y.2d 230).

The defendant's remaining contentions are without merit.

SANTUCCI, J.P., FEUERSTEIN, O'BRIEN and LUCIANO, JJ., concur.
