The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Elton Speller, Appellant.
    [888 NYS2d 757]
   Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Guzman, J.), rendered March 12, 2008, convicting him of petit larceny, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

Contrary to the defendant’s contention, he was not denied a fair trial by the prosecutor’s comments in her opening remarks and summation (see People v Martin, 54 AD3d 776 [2008]). Fisher, J.P., Covello, Santucci and Balkin, JJ., concur.
