Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the County Court, Westchester County (West, J.), rendered April 27, 1987, convicting him of attempted escape in the first degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.
*790Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution (see, People v Contes, 60 NY2d 620), we find that it was legally sufficient to establish the defendant’s guilt of attempted escape in the first degree beyond a reasonable doubt. Moreover, upon the exercise of our factual review power, we are satisfied that the verdict was not against the weight of the evidence (CPL 470.15 [5]).
The evidence established that at approximately 11:15 p.m. on November 28, 1984 the defendant, who was an inmate at the Sing Sing Correctional Facility at Ossining, New York, jumped out of a second-floor window. The estimated 30-foot fall resulted in injuries to the defendant’s legs. Correction officers who responded to the location found the defendant lying on the ground face down. Inside a green laundry bag lying next to him were various items of toiletries, including a tube of toothpaste, toothbrushes and antiperspirant.
The defendant’s conduct, therefore, went beyond the stage of mere preparation (see, People v Bracey, 41 NY2d 296; People v Di Stef ano, 38 NY2d 640), and the mere fact that it may have proven impossible for him to actually exit the prison facility because of other security barriers is no defense to attempted escape in the first degree (Penal Law § 110.10; People v Charon, 141 AD2d 660; People v Trepanier, 84 AD2d 374). As to whether the defendant was sane when he jumped through the window, the conflicting testimony merely raised an issue of credibility, the resolution of which was primarily the function of the jury (see, People v Gaimari, 176 NY 84, 94), and its determination should be accorded great weight on appeal and should not be disturbed unless clearly unsupported by the record (see, People v Garafolo, 44 AD2d 86, 88).
The defendant also contends that the court erred in denying his motion for dismissal of the indictment on the ground that he had been denied a speedy trial. We disagree. The record clearly shows that the one-year delay in bringing the case to trial was due to the fact that the defendant was adjudged incompetent pursuant to a CPL article 730 examination. The defendant also missed various appointments with a psychiatrist, requiring further evaluations in order to determine whether or not he was competent, which determination was not made until June 29, 1986. Accordingly, the court properly excluded the period of incompetency (see, CPL 30.30 [4]; see also, Matter of Watts v Supreme CL, 36 AD2d 17). Nor was the defendant denied his constitutional right to a speedy trial (CPL 30.20; People v Taranovich, 37 NY2d 442).
*791We have considered the defendant’s remaining contentions and find them to be either unpreserved for appellate review or without merit. Bracken, J. P., Eiber, Harwood and Balletta, JJ., concur.
