New York Court of Appeals

The People of the State of New York, Respondent v. Shannon M. Kolupa, Appellant

September 22, 200913 N.Y.3d 786

Summary

The Court affirmed the Appellate Division's order, holding that the defendant failed to preserve his argument that the People offered insufficient corroboration of the child victim’s testimony, rendering the issue unreviewable. The decision notes that the defendant neither renewed his motion to dismiss after presenting his own evidence nor specifically argued lack of corroboration, and therefore his remaining contention lacks merit.
