ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
Following the proper administration of Miranda warnings (see Miranda v. Arizona, 384 U.S. 436), the defendant waived his rights and made an exculpatory statement concerning his involvement in the shooting of the victim. Several hours later, after the police reminded him of his right to remain silent, the defendant again agreed to speak and made an inculpatory statement about his participation in the shooting.
Contrary to the defendant's contention on appeal, the hearing court properly found that the defendant's second statement followed the proper administration of Miranda warnings, which he knowingly and voluntarily waived (see People v. Nunez, 80 N.Y.2d 858; People v. Bastidas, 67 N.Y.2d 1006; People v. Marcano, 260 A.D.2d 406; People v. Nisbett, 225 A.D.2d 801, 802; People v. Abreu, 184 A.D.2d 707).
Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution, we find that it was legally sufficient to establish the defendant's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt (see People v. Contes, 60 N.Y.2d 620). The defendant knew the shooter's plan, and he and the shooter rode to the scene together. After the shooting, the defendant accepted the murder weapon from the shooter and secreted it on his body, and they then left the scene together. These facts established the "community of purpose" necessary for a finding of accessorial liability (People v. Cabey, 85 N.Y.2d 417, 421; see People v. Allah, 71 N.Y.2d 830; People v. Coulter, 240 A.D.2d 756; People v. McNeil, 228 A.D.2d 620, 621).
The trial court's charge to the jury regarding intent for accessorial liability sufficiently conveyed the proper legal standard, especially since it was accompanied by the language of Penal Law § 20.00 (see People v. Slacks, 90 N.Y.2d 850, 851; People v. Gonzalez, 279 A.D.2d 637).
The denial of the defendant's request, on the day his trial was scheduled to begin, for an adjournment to allow newly-retained counsel to prepare for trial was a proper exercise of the trial court's discretion (see People v. Wright, 287 A.D.2d 526; People v. Wicker, 229 A.D.2d 602).
