IN RE: Joye G. (Anonymous) (2010)

Submitted-September 27, 2010

DECISION & ORDER

In a juvenile delinquency proceeding pursuant to Family Court Act article 3, the appeal is from an order of disposition of the Family Court, Queens County (Hunt, J.), dated October 2, 2009, which, upon a fact-finding order of the same court dated August 13, 2009, made after a hearing, finding that the appellant committed acts which, if committed by an adult, would have constituted the crimes of attempted robbery in the second degree in violation of Penal Law §§ 110.00 and 160.10, attempted grand larceny in the fourth degree in violation of Penal Law §§ 110.00 and 155.30, and assault in the third degree in violation of Penal Law § 120.00(1), adjudged him to be a juvenile delinquent and placed him on probation for a period of 18 months.   The appeal brings up for review the fact-finding order dated August 13, 2009, and an order of the same court, dated June 25, 2009, denying, after a hearing, the appellant's application to suppress identification evidence.

ORDERED that the order of disposition is affirmed, without costs or disbursements.

Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the presentment agency (see Matter of David H., 69 N.Y.2d 792, 793;  Matter of Shaquana S., 9 AD3d 466, 467;  Matter of Shamasia M., 4 AD3d 359, 361), we find that the evidence was legally sufficient to support the determination made in the fact-finding order (cf.  Penal Law §§ 110.00, 160.10, 155.30, 120.00).

Upon the exercise of our factual review power, we are satisfied that the Family Court's fact-finding determination was not against the weight of the evidence (cf.  People v. Romero, 7 NY3d 633;  CPL 470.15[5] ).

Contrary to the appellant's contention, the showup identification, which was conducted in close geographic and temporal proximity to the incident, was reasonable under the circumstances and not unduly suggestive (cf.  People v. Brisco, 99 N.Y.2d 596, 597;  People v. Clinding, 40 AD3d 1117;  Matter of David B., 244 A.D.2d 405;  see also Matter of Sadira Mc., 45 AD3d 847, 848-849).

SANTUCCI, J.P., BALKIN, LEVENTHAL and AUSTIN, JJ., concur.
