The PEOPLE of the State of New York, Respondent, v. Nelson BERNAL–HERNANDEZ, Defendant–Appellant.
Judgment of conviction (Abraham Clott, J.), rendered April 8, 2015, affirmed.
The verdict was not against the weight of the evidence (see People v. Danielson, 9 NY3d 342, 348–349 [2007] ). The credibility issues raised by defendant were properly placed before the trier of fact and, after considering the relative force of the conflicting testimony and the competing inferences that may be drawn therefrom, we find no reason on the record before us to disturb the court's determination to credit the arresting officers' testimony rather than defendant's.
THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE COURT.
Per Curiam.
