Head Matter:
The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Michael J. Lyng, Appellant.

Opinion:
— Judgment unanimously affirmed. Memorandum: None of the issues raised by defendant warrants reversal. The trial court did not err in making its Sandoval ruling; the verdict was supported by sufficient evi dence and accorded with the weight of the evidence; defendant failed to preserve for appellate review his contention that the court's instruction on interested witnesses unfairly singled out defendant; and the sentence was not harsh and excessive.
