    The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Melantha Matthews, Appellant.
    [785 NYS2d 716]
   Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Westchester County (Smith, J.), rendered May 6, 2003, convicting her of robbery in the second degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant’s contention that the evidence was legally insufficient to support her conviction is unpreserved for appellate review (see CPL 470.05 [2]; People v Gray, 86 NY2d 10 [1995]). In any event, viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution (see People v Contes, 60 NY2d 620 [1983]), we find that it was legally sufficient to establish the defendant’s guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. Moreover, upon the exercise of our factual review power, we are satisfied that the verdict of guilt was not against the weight of the evidence (see CPL 470.15 [5]).

The defendant’s trial counsel provided meaningful representation (see People v Benevento, 91 NY2d 708 [1998]; People v Baldi, 54 NY2d 137 [1981]).

The defendant’s remaining contentions either are unpreserved for appellate review or without merit. Florio, J.P., Krausman, Cozier and Rivera, JJ., concur.
