PEOPLE v. PRATT

Judgment unanimously affirmed. Memorandum: There is no merit to any of the issues raised by defendant on appeal and only one requires comment. It is argued that the charges against defendant should be dismissed because delay in the appellate process denied him due process of law. We reject the argument because defendant cannot demonstrate prejudice resulting from the delay (see, People v. Cousart, 58 N.Y.2d 62; People v. Gaines, 143 A.D.2d 520, lv denied 73 N.Y.2d 855).
