    The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Kenneth Hammonds, Appellant.
    [665 NYS2d 552]
   —Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the County Court, Westchester County (Tomlinson, J.), rendered April 15, 1996, convicting him of criminal possession of a weapon in the third degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution (see, People v Contes, 60 NY2d 620), 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 remaining contentions lack merit or have been waived. Mangano, P. J., Bracken, Altman and Goldstein, JJ., concur.
