PEOPLE v. VILLALOBOS
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department.
Feb 19, 1985
Judgment affirmed.
Contrary to defendant's claim, we find that the trial court did not abuse its discretion in denying his motion for a severance inasmuch as defendant failed to make a showing that codefendant Mora would testify if the trials were severed and inasmuch as defendant failed to show that any testimony that Mora would give would tend to exculpate him ( see, People v Bornholdt, 33 N.Y.2d 75, cert denied sub nom. Victory v New York, 416 U.S. 905; CPL 200.40). We have considered defendant's other contentions and either find them to be unpreserved or without merit. Gibbons, J.P., Thompson, Weinstein and Brown, JJ., concur.
