Further, defendant did not object below that the court’s limited questioning of the People’s witnesses implied a shifting of the burden of proof (CPL 470.05 [2]; People v Allen, 69 NY2d 915, 916 [1987]; People v McAloney, 2 AD3d 538, 539 [2003]), and upon a review of the record, we find no merit to the claim.

At the outset, the appellant’s contentions that the court improperly shifted the burden of proof on the justification defense to her and that it erroneously applied an objective standard in evaluating that defense are unpreserved for appellate review, inasmuch as neither of these arguments was raised in the Family Court (see, CPL 470.05 [2]; see generally, People v Allen, 69 NY2d 915 ).

The court properly declined to reread the circumstantial evidence charge, because it had no reason to “go beyond the jury’s request” (People v Almodovar, 62 NY2d 126, 132 [1984]; see also People v Allen, 69 NY2d 915 [1987]).

OPINION OF THE COURT

Memorandum.

The order of the Appellate Division affirming a judgment of conviction for murder in the second degree should be affirmed.

Defendant’s central contention on this appeal relates in two respects to instructions to the jury on intoxication. There is no error in denying a reinstruction on intoxication in the supplemental charge to the jury inasmuch as the jury did not ask for reinstruction on that issue but only on the elements of the crime charged.

Defendant’s objection to the primary instruction on intoxication is now framed as a violation of due process by importing a burden of proof shift or undue emphasis on credibility. It was not so framed as an objection expressed to the Trial Judge, and is not adequately preserved by the unparticularized objection to the intoxication instruction.

Chief Judge Wachtler and Judges Simons, Kaye, Alexander, Titone, Hancock, Jr., and Bellacosa concur.

Order affirmed in a memorandum.
