Contrary to defendant's argument, his convictions on the possession and paraphernalia counts were based on legally sufficient evidence. There was ample evidence, including defendant's participation in the sales, to connect him to the contraband ( see, People v. Bundy, 90 N.Y.2d 918).
Defendant's assertion that the court ignored his pro se speedy trial motion is refuted by the record. The court referred the motion to defense counsel for the purpose of reviewing it and perhaps adopting the motion if it had merit ( see, People v. Renaud, 145 A.D.2d 367, 369-370, appeal dismissed 74 N.Y.2d 734), whereupon no further mention of the motion was made by defendant or counsel; thus, the matter was abandoned ( see, People v. Cobos, 57 N.Y.2d 798, 802).
Defendant's claim that he was entitled to discover the identity of the confidential informant is unpreserved and we decline to review it in the interest of justice. Were we to review this claim, we would find no basis for such disclosure ( see, People v. Goggins, 34 N.Y.2d 163, cert denied 419 U.S. 1012).
