    The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Alphonso Syville, Appellant.
    [10 NYS3d 891]
   Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (McKay, J.), rendered February 10, 2012, convicting him of endangering the welfare of a child (three counts) and attempted assault in the third degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant’s contention that the Supreme Court erred in refusing to give a justification charge concerning his use of physical force against the complainant is without merit (see Penal Law § 35.10 [1]; People v Lyons, 94 AD3d 1020, 1021 [2012]; People v Hall, 65 AD3d 1377, 1378 [2009]; People v Jackson, 243 AD2d 653, 653 [1997]). The evidence presented at the defendant’s trial provided no basis for determining that the defendant reasonably believed that his use of force was necessary to defend himself against the complainant (see People v Watts, 57 NY2d 299, 302 [1982]).

The defendant’s remaining contentions are without merit. Balkin, J.P., Austin, Miller and Maltese, JJ., concur.
