PEOPLE v. FAISON

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department.
May 18, 1998

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant failed to preserve, for appellate review his claim that the trial court should have excused a prospective juror for cause, since he did not join in his codefendant's application to challenge the juror ( see, e.g., People v. Colselby, 240 A.D.2d 227, lv denied 90 N.Y.2d 906, 1010, 1014; People v. Scott, 197 A.D.2d 644; CPL 270.15; 470.05 [2]).

In any event, the court did not improvidently exercise its discretion in denying the codefendant's motion to strike the prospective juror for cause ( see, People v. Baskett, 250 A.D.2d 774 [decided herewith]).

Friedmann, J.P., Goldstein, Florio and Luciano, JJ., concur.
