Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York November 13, 2000 (People v. Starzynski)

—Judgment unanimously affirmed. Memorandum: Defendant contends that the stop of his vehicle by the police for aggravated unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle was a pretext to investigate an unrelated burglary. Even assuming, arguendo, that the purpose of the stop was to investigate the burglary, we nevertheless conclude that the stop was proper.
