THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, Respondent, v. LENNOX PRESCOTT, Appellant.

Ordered that the judgement is affirmed.

Under the circumstances herein, the defense counsel's failure to request or pursue certain pretrial suppression hearings does not constitute ineffective assistance of counsel (see, People v Boero, 117 A.D.2d 814; People v. Morris, 100 A.D.2d 630, affd 64 N.Y.2d 803; People v. Bonk, 83 A.D.2d 695). Viewing the trial in its entirety, the defendant received meaningful and effective representation (see, People v. Baldi, 54 N.Y.2d 137). Mollen, P.J., Mangano, Brown and Lawrence, JJ., concur.
