Decided on June 30, 2009
APPELLATE TERM OF THE SUPREME COURT, FIRST DEPARTMENT

PRESENT: McKeon, P.J., Heitler, Shulman, JJ
570321/09.

The People of the State of New York, Respondent,

against

Sook Shin C. Hyun, Defendant-Appellant.


Defendant appeals from a judgment of the Criminal Court of the City of New York, New York County (Marc Whiten, J.), rendered December 30, 2008, after a nonjury trial, convicting her of prostitution, and imposing sentence.


Per Curiam.

Judgment of conviction (Marc Whiten, J.), rendered December 30, 2008, affirmed.

Defendant's conviction of prostitution (see Penal Law § 230.00) was supported by legally sufficient evidence and was not against the weight of the evidence. Issues of credibility were presented to the trial court, as factfinder, and we see no reason to disturb its determinations. The undercover police officer's credited and unrefuted testimony established beyond a reasonable doubt that defendant agreed to engage in sexual conduct for a fee.

THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE COURT.
