THE PEOPLE, ETC., RESPONDENT, v. ERIC SHERWOOD, APPELLANT. (Ind. No. 298/98)

DECISION ORDER

ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant's contention that the People's summation remarks constituted reversible error is unpreserved for appellate review. He either failed to object to the remarks, made only a general objection, or his objections were sustained without any further request for curative instructions or a timely motion for mistrial (see, CPL 470.05; People v. Tevaha, 84 N.Y.2d 879; People v. Heide, 84 N.Y.2d 943; People v. Medina, 53 N.Y.2d 951; People v. Persaud, 237 A.D.2d 538). In any event, the defendant's contentions are largely without merit, and any error was harmless in light of the overwhelming evidence of guilt (see, People v. Crimmins, 36 N.Y.2d 230, 241-242).
