Motion to Set Aside a Verdict Properly Denied When Based Upon an Error Not Preserved by Objection

The Second Department noted that a motion to set aside a verdict (Criminal Procedure Law 330.30) is properly denied when it is based upon an error that was not preserved by objection.  (The issue could be addressed by the appellate court in the interest of justice, but the exercise of interest of justice jurisdiction was declined here.) People v Clayborne, 2014 NY Slip OP 08659, 2nd Dept 12-10-14
