People v. Crespo (228 A.D.2d 515, 1996)

Contrary to the defendant’s contentions, he was not denied the effective assistance of counsel at trial. The record shows that defense counsel vigorously pursued all colorable claims (see, People v Garcia, 75 NY2d 973).

The defendant’s remaining contentions are either unpreserved for appellate review or without merit. Mangano, P. J., Rosenblatt, Ritter and Copertino, JJ., concur.
