PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, RESPONDENT, v. JOSE CASTIORE, DEFENDANT-APPELLANT.

The verdict was based on legally sufficient evidence and was not against the weight of the evidence. There is no basis upon which to disturb the jury's determinations concerning identification and credibility.

Defendant's argument that the Allen charge (Allen v. United States, 164 U.S. 492) was coercive is unpreserved and we decline to review it in the interest of justice. Were we to review this claim, we would find that the charge, read as a whole, adequately conveyed the proper principles, was sufficiently balanced, and did not impart to the jury that it was obligated to come to a verdict.
