PEOPLE v. PINDER

Judgment affirmed.

The supplemental instructions delivered by the Trial Judge after the jury indicated that it was deadlocked were "essentially neutral" and did not serve to coerce the jurors to reach a certain verdict or any verdict (see People v. Page, 47 N.Y.2d 968, 970, cert den 444 U.S. 936; People v. Pagan, 45 N.Y.2d 725; cf. People v. Robinson, 84 A.D.2d 732).

We have considered defendant's remaining contentions and find them to be either unpreserved or lacking in merit. Thompson, J.P., O'Connor, Boyers and Lawrence, JJ., concur.
