THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, Respondent, - -

against

RONALD CONNORS, Appellant.


[*2]Appeal by defendant from a judgment of the District Court, Nassau County (J. Asarch, J.), rendered on October 15, 2002, convicting him of harassment in the second degree (Penal Law § 240.26 [1]) and imposing sentence.


Judgment of conviction unanimously reversed on the facts, accusatory instrument dismissed and fine, if paid, remitted.

Upon the exercise of our factual review power, it is our opinion that the finding that the defendant had the requisite intent to harass, annoy or alarm was against the weight of the evidence (see CPL 470.15 [5]). Accordingly, the judgment of conviction must be reversed.
