PEOPLE v. BRANCH
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the People (see, People v. Contes, 60 N.Y.2d 620), we find that it was legally sufficient to establish the defendant's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. Moreover, upon exercise of our factual review power, we are satisfied that the verdict was not against the weight of the evidence (see, CPL 470.15[ 5]; People v. Martinez, 186 A.D.2d 824).
The sentencing court did not err in ordering consecutive sentences on the burglary and robbery convictions (see, People v. Yong Yun Lee, 92 N.Y.2d 987).
The defendant's sentence was not excessive (see, People v. Suitte, 90 A.D.2d 80).
The defendant's remaining contentions are without merit.
SANTUCCI, J.P., FRIEDMANN, McGINITY and SMITH, JJ., concur.
