However, extrinsic proof tending to establish a witness's bias or reason to fabricate is never collateral ( see People v Spencer , 20 NY3d 954, 956 [2012]; People v Anonymous , 96 NY2d 839, 840 [2001]; People v Hudy , 73 NY2d 40, 56-57 [1988]).

Contrary to defendant’s contention, the rebuttal witness was properly called to give testimony that was relevant to the defense witness’s bias or motive to fabricate, which is not collateral (see People v Anonymous, 96 NY2d 839, 840 [2001]).

Ill Defendant raises additional issues, many of which are either unpreserved or otherwise unreviewable, and the remainder lack merit: the curative instruction during the prosecutor’s summation corrected any perceived error (see People v Heide, 84 NY2d 943, 944 [1994]); it was not an abuse of discretion to permit a rebuttal witness (see People v Anonymous, 96 NY2d 839, 840 [2001]); defendant has failed to demonstrate that he was deprived of meaningful legal assistance (see e.g.

The videotape was admissible as rebuttal evidence to discredit the testimony of defendant’s alibi witness (see People v Anonymous, 96 NY2d 839, 840 [2001]) and defendant has not demonstrated “the absence of strategic or other legitimate explanations for [defense] counsel’s” stipulation (People v Rivera, 71 NY2d 705, 709 [1988]; see generally People v Rivera, 22 AD3d 888, 889-890 [2005], lv denied 6 NY3d 780 [2006]).

[*840] OPINION OF THE COURT

Memorandum.

The order of the Appellate Division should be affirmed. The motivation of defendant’s main alibi witness to fabricate testimony was not collateral and, therefore, Supreme Court did not abuse its discretion in permitting cross-examination of the witness or in admitting rebuttal testimony refuting the alibi witness’s claims. We note the point raised by defendant as to the prosecutor’s improper comments during the summation, but are unable to reach it. We do not condone the summation and base our affirmance solely on defendant’s failure to preserve the issue. Defendant’s remaining argument regarding the court’s charge is likewise unpreserved (People v Thomas, 50 NY2d 467, 471-472).

Chief Judge Kaye and Judges Smith, Levine, Ciparick, Wesley, Rosenblatt and Graffeo concur.

On review of submissions pursuant to section 500.4 of the Rules of the Court of Appeals (22 NYCRR 500.4), order affirmed in a memorandum.
