MOONEY, MARGARET, PEOPLE v
SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK
Appellate Division, Fourth Judicial Department
[404] KA 09-02280 PRESENT: SMITH, J.P., FAHEY, PERADOTTO, SCONIERS, AND VALENTINO, JJ.
THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, RESPONDENT,
V MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
MARGARET MOONEY, DEFENDANT-APPELLANT.
JASON J. BOWMAN, ONTARIO, FOR DEFENDANT-APPELLANT.
SANDRA DOORLEY, DISTRICT ATTORNEY, ROCHESTER (NANCY GILLIGAN OF
COUNSEL), FOR RESPONDENT.
Appeal from a judgment of the Monroe County Court (Richard A. Keenan, J.), rendered June 18, 2009. The judgment convicted defendant, upon a jury verdict, of robbery in the second degree (two counts) and assault in the second degree.
It is hereby ORDERED that the judgment so appealed from is unanimously affirmed.
Memorandum: On appeal from a judgment convicting her following a jury trial of assault in the second degree (Penal Law § 120.05 [6]) and two counts of robbery in the second degree (§ 160.10 [1], [2] [a]), defendant contends that the evidence of physical injury is legally insufficient to support her conviction. Because defendant’s motion for a trial order of dismissal was not “ ‘specifically directed’ at th[at] alleged error,” defendant failed to preserve her contention for our review (People v Gray, 86 NY2d 10, 19 ). Contrary to defendant’s further contention, viewing the evidence in light of the elements of the crimes as charged to the jury (see People v Danielson, 9 NY3d 342, 349 ), we conclude that the verdict is not against the weight of the evidence (see generally People v Bleakley,
69 NY2d 490, 495 ; People v Robinson, 104 AD3d 1312, 1312 , lv denied 21 NY3d 1008 ).
