PEOPLE v. CREIGHTON

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The trial court did not improvidently exercise its discretion in denying a challenge for cause of a prospective juror. The record of the voir dire reveals that this juror did not possess a state of mind which would have precluded the defendant from receiving a fair trial (see, People v Williams, 63 N.Y.2d 882; People v Torpey, 63 N.Y.2d 361; People v Pagan, 191 A.D.2d 651).

The defendant's remaining contentions are either unpreserved for appellate review or without merit. Bracken, J.P., Joy, Friedmann and Florio, JJ., concur.
