Read the official decision: 2026 NY Slip Op 04614

Holding The court affirmed the convictions for attempted murder and related offenses, finding the evidence legally sufficient and not against the weight of the evidence despite the lack of forensic proof. The appeal regarding the original sentence was dismissed as superseded by a subsequent resentence, which was also affirmed as not unduly harsh.
