    The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Omar Nieves, Appellant.
    [857 NYS2d 502]
   Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Chambers, J.), rendered May 11, 2006, convicting him of murder in the second degree and criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant’s claim that he was denied a fair trial when the court permitted the prosecutor to introduce evidence of the defendant’s prior bad act is preserved for appellate review (see CPL 470.05 [2]). However, any error in admitting the evidence was harmless because the evidence of the defendant’s guilt was overwhelming and there is no significant probability that, had it not been for the alleged error, the jury would have acquitted the defendant (see People v Jackson, 8 NY3d 869, 871 [2007]; People v Crimmins, 36 NY2d 230 [1975]). Rivera, J.P., Covello, Angiolillo and McCarthy, JJ., concur.
