    The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Rafael Solar, Appellant.
    [758 NYS2d 821]
   —Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Chambers, J.), rendered January 11, 2001, convicting him of criminal sale of a controlled substance in the third degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant’s challenge to the legal sufficiency of the evidence is unpreserved for appellate review (see CPL 470.05 [2]; People v Gray, 86 NY2d 10 [1995]; People v Udzinski, 146 AD2d 245 [1989]). 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 contentions raised in the defendant’s supplemental pro se brief either are unpreserved for appellate review or without merit. Prudenti, P.J., Ritter, Feuerstein and Crane, JJ., concur.
