The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Dwayne Henry, Appellant.
    [682 NYS2d 355]
   —Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Rios, J.), rendered August 12, 1996, convicting him of criminal possession of stolen property in the third degree and unauthorized use of a vehicle in the third degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant’s challenges to the legal sufficiency of the evidence are unpreserved for appellate review (see, CPL 470.05 [2]; People v Udzinski, 146 AD2d 245). In any event, 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 the defendant’s guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. Moreover, upon the exercise of our factual review power, we are satisfied that the verdict of guilt was not against the weight of the evidence (see, CPL 470.15 [5]).

The defendant’s remaining contentions are either unpreserved for appellate review or without merit. Miller, J. P., Thompson, Joy and Florio, JJ., concur.
