FAILURE TO PRODUCE DEFENDANT FOR A PROBATION INTERVIEW FOR THE PRESENTENCE REPORT REQUIRED RESENTENCING.

The First Department determined the fact that defendant was not produced for a probation interview, and the resulting absence of a social history from the probation report, required resentencing:

Under all the circumstances, including the fact that this was a conviction after trial rather than a negotiated plea, there should be a new sentencing proceeding. Defendant was not produced for a probation interview, and the presentence report accordingly contains no social history. There is no indication in the record that defendant intentionally avoided the interview. Counsel brought the lack of an interview to the court's attention on the day of sentencing, and requested an adjournment for that purpose. Defendant's opportunity to make a statement at sentencing was not a sufficient substitute for an interview in this case, and his choice not to make such a statement does not warrant a different conclusion. People v Harleston, 2016 NY Slip Op 03428, 1st Dept 5-3-16
