County Court Had Jurisdiction to Correct 1999 Sentence Which Did Not Include Period of Post-Release Supervision

The Third Department noted that County Court had jurisdiction to correct defendant’s 1999 sentence, which did not include post-release supervision:

Defendant’s contention that County Court lacked jurisdiction due to an alleged unreasonable delay in correcting the sentence is without merit.    A delay in resentencing pursuant to Correction Law § 601-d is “not jurisdictional in nature and do[es] not deprive the court of the authority to correct an illegal sentence and resentence a defendant to a term of incarceration that includes a period of postrelease supervision”… . Furthermore, because defendant had not completed serving his initial sentence, the sentence was still subject to correction without invoking the protection against double jeopardy… .  People v Siler, 105042, 3rd Dept, 6-20-13
