THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, Respondent, v. DAWN McMILLIAN, Appellant.

The trial court properly allowed the undercover officer's limited background testimony concerning the various roles generally played by the participants in drug sales ( see, People v Garcia, 196 A.D.2d 433, affd 83 N.Y.2d 817; People v. Kelsey, 194 A.D.2d 248), in order to explain defendant's conduct and the absence of cash on her person ( see, People v. Applewhite, 202 A.D.2d 250, 251, lv denied 83 N.Y.2d 868).

Defendant's home address, although incriminating, qualified for the pedigree exception to Miranda requirements, since it was elicited through administrative questioning ( People v. Rodney, 85 N.Y.2d 289).

Concur — Sullivan, J.P., Ellerin, Tom, Mazzarelli and Andrias, JJ.
