PEOPLE v. ALDRIDGE

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The determination as to whether to reopen a case for further testimony rests within the sound discretion of the trial court ( see, People v. Ventura, 35 N.Y.2d 654; People v. Saddler, 219 A.D.2d 796; People v. Fama, 212 A.D.2d 542). Under the circumstances of this case, it cannot be said that the trial court improvidently exercised its discretion.

To the limited extent that the defendant's remaining contentions are preserved for appellate review, they are without merit.

Joy, J. P., Krausman, Goldstein and Luciano, JJ., concur.
