ONLY ONE FINE SHOULD HAVE BEEN IMPOSED WHERE TWO CONVICTIONS AROSE FROM THE SAME ACT.

The Fourth Department determined one fine, not two, should have been imposed on two convictions arising from the same act:

We agree with defendant, however, that the fines are illegal to the extent the court imposed a fine on both a conviction for criminal sale of a controlled substance in the third degree and criminal possession of a controlled substance in the third degree that arose from a single act … . People v Regatuso, 2016 NY Slip Op 04836, 4th Dept 6-17-16
