Head Matter:
The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Thomas Coleman, Also Known as Bryan Warr, Appellant.

Opinion:
Judgment unanimously affirmed. Memorandum: Defendant's conviction of attempted robbery in the third degree (see, Penal Law § 110.00, 160.05) is supported by legally sufficient evidence that defendant used force in attempting to steal his victim's property (see, Penal Law § 160.00; People v Safon, 166 AD2d 892, lv denied 76 NY2d 990; People v Jefferson, 158 AD2d 281, lv denied 76 NY2d 737; People v Crandall, 135 AD2d 1084; cf., People v Lumpkin, 173 AD2d 738; People v Davis, 71 AD2d 607). Further, we conclude that the verdict was not against the weight of the evidence (see, People v Bleakley, 69 NY2d 490, 495). Finally, we reject defendant's argument that his sentence was harsh and excessive. (Appeal from Judgment of Oneida County Court, Buckley, J. — Attempted Robbery, 3rd Degree.) Present — Green, J.
