THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, Respondent, v. CRAIG THORNTON, Appellant.

Since defendant has not raised his claim of ineffective assistance in a CPL article 440 motion, the record is insufficient to review strategic explanations for counsel's conduct of the trial and failure to pursue an entrapment defense (see, People v. Love, 57 N.Y.2d 998; People v. Fuentes, 246 A.D.2d 474). A review of the existing record indicates that defendant received adequate representation (see, People v. Hobot, 84 N.Y.2d 1021; People v. Baldi, 54 N.Y.2d 137; cf., People v. Brown, 82 N.Y.2d 869).

Concur — Rosenberger, J.P., Ellerin, Wallach, Williams and Saxe, JJ.
