People v. Robinson , 163 A.D.2d 429 ( 1990 )

Appeal by defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Beerman, J.), rendered September 6, 1988, convicting him of menacing, 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 beyond a reasonable doubt that defendant threatened the complainant with a gun, causing the complainant to fear for his physical safety and flee. Moreover, resolution of issues of credibility, as well as the weight to be accorded to the evidence presented, are primarily questions to be determined by the jury, which saw and heard the witnesses (see, People v Gaimari, 176 NY 84, 94). Its determination should be accorded great weight on appeal and should not be disturbed unless clearly unsupported by the record (see, People v Garafolo, 44 AD2d 86, 88). Upon the exercise of our factual review power, we are satisfied that the verdict was not against the weight of the evidence (see, CPL 470.15 [5]). Thompson, J. P., Rubin, Rosenblatt and Miller, JJ., concur.
