vRenand Louis, appellant.


Lynn W. L. Fahey, New York, NY (Anders Nelson of counsel), for appellant.
Eric Gonzalez, Acting District Attorney, Brooklyn, NY (Leonard Joblove, Thomas M. Ross, Scott E. Blair, and Angelyn M. Justian of counsel), for respondent.

DECISION & ORDER
Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Firetog, J.), rendered December 17, 2013, convicting him of manslaughter in the first degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
The defendant's contention concerning the trial court's charge on the issue of justification is unpreserved for appellate review, and we decline to review this issue in the exercise of our interest of justice jurisdiction (cf. People v Feuer, 11 AD3d 633).
The sentence imposed was not excessive (see People v Suitte, 90 AD2d 80).
MASTRO, J.P., HALL, COHEN and IANNACCI, JJ., concur.

Clerk of the Court
