The court properly declined to submit criminally negligent homicide to the jury as a lesser included offense of manslaughter in the second degree, since even when viewed most favorably to defendant, there was no reasonable view of the evidence that defendant merely failed to perceive the risk of death that would result from defendant's use of a knife against the victim (see, People v. Stanfield, 36 N.Y.2d 467).
We perceive no basis for reduction of sentence.
THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE SUPREME COURT, APPELLATE DIVISION, FIRST DEPARTMENT.
