OPINION OF THE COURT
Memorandum.
The order of the Appellate Division should be affirmed.
Defendant failed to preserve his contention that the trial court discharged prospective jurors based on hardship without conducting a sufficient inquiry (see People v King, 27 NY3d 147 [2016] [decided herewith]). Defendant's remaining contentions are without merit.
