Head Matter:
The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Jose Santiago, Appellant.
[954 NYS2d 453]

Opinion:
The verdict was not against the weight of the evidence (see People v Danielson, 9 NY3d 342, 348-349 [2007]). There is no basis for disturbing the jury's rejection of defendant's explanation of his reason for forcefully throwing his dog to the floor, causing injury.
