v
Isa Johnson, appellant.
The Legal Aid Society, New York, NY (David Crow and Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan, LLP [Deborah S. Sohn], of counsel), for appellant.
Eric Gonzalez, District Attorney, Brooklyn, NY (Leonard Joblove, Sholom J. Twersky, and Paul Hastings LLP [Gary F. Giampetruzzi and Inna Coleman], of counsel), for respondent.
DECISION & ORDER
Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Alan Marrus, J.), rendered July 16, 2012, convicting him of manslaughter in the first degree and attempted assault in the first degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
There is no merit to the defendant's contention that the Supreme Court should have granted his motion for a mistrial based on the prosecution's failure to timely disclose information pertaining to a pending criminal action against a prosecution witness (see Brady v Maryland, 373 US 83; People v Rosario, 9 NY2d 286; CPL 240.45[1][c]). The defendant failed to demonstrate that he suffered any prejudice from the delay in disclosure (see CPL 240.75; People v Sanchez, 144 AD3d 1179, 1180; People v King, 298 AD2d 530, 531; People v Rodriguez, 269 AD2d 613), and the information was provided to the defendant before cross-examination of the relevant witness (see People v Sanchez, 144 AD3d at 1180; People v King, 298 AD2d at 531).
The sentence imposed was not excessive (see People v Suitte, 90 AD2d 80). The fact that a codefendant who pleaded guilty received a more lenient sentence does not warrant a reduction of the defendant's sentence (see People v Leduc, 140 AD3d 1305, 1307; People v Merchant, 171 AD2d 887, 888).
RIVERA, J.P., MALTESE, BARROS and CHRISTOPHER, JJ., concur.
