THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, Respondent, v. DONALD DIEN, Appellant.

MEMORANDUM.

The order of the Appellate Division should be affirmed.

Defendant's sole argument on appeal is that a specific comment made by the prosecutor during summation violated his rights to a fair trial by an impartial jury and to equal protection under the law. At the time of the prosecutor's statement, however, defendant made only a general objection, thus failing to preserve his argument for this Court's review (see, People v Rivera, 73 N.Y.2d 941, 942; People v Ford, 69 N.Y.2d 775, 776).

Chief Judge WACHTLER and Judges SIMONS, KAYE, ALEXANDER, TITONE, HANCOCK, JR., and BELLACOSA concur.

Order affirmed in a memorandum.
