—Appeal from a judgment of Supreme Court, Erie County (Forma, J.), entered February 8, 1999, convicting defendant after a jury trial of, inter alia, burglary in the second degree.
It is hereby ordered that the judgment so appealed from be and the same hereby is unanimously affirmed.
Memorandum: Defendant appeals from a judgment convicting him following a jury trial of burglary in the second degree (Penal Law § 140.25 [2]) and robbery in the third degree (§ 160.05) and further convicting him following a separate bench trial of criminal possession of stolen property in the fifth degree (§ 165.40) and unauthorized use of a motor vehicle in the third degree (§ 165.05 [1]). We conclude that the verdict in each trial is not against the weight of the evidence (see People v Bleakley, 69 NY2d 490, 495). We further conclude that defendant was not deprived of effective assistance of counsel as a result of defense counsel’s comments with respect to defendant’s pro se motions. The record establishes that defense counsel’s comments did not affect Supreme Court’s determination of the pro se motions (cf. People v Caple, 279 AD2d 635, 636, lv denied 96 NY2d 798; People v Nin, 276 AD2d 350, 351, lv denied 96 NY2d 737; People v Nawabi, 265 AD2d 156, lv denied 94 NY2d 865; People v Zirpola, 237 AD2d 967, lv denied 90 NY2d 899; People v Rodriguez, 189 AD2d 684, 685, lv denied 81 NY2d 892). In any event, the court had no obligation to entertain pro se motions made at a time when defendant was represented by counsel (see People v Rodriguez, 95 NY2d 497, 501-503).
