JUVENILE DELINQUENCY PETITION JURISDICTIONALLY DEFECTIVE, PETITION ALLEGING UNLAWFUL POSSESSION OF A WEAPON DISMISSED (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department, reversing Family Court, determined the juvenile delinquency petition was jurisdictionally defective and dismissed it:

​

For the petition, or a count thereof, to be sufficient on its face, the factual part of the petition or of any supporting depositions must set forth sworn, nonhearsay allegations sufficient to establish, if true, every element of each crime charged and the alleged delinquent’s commission thereof … . Such allegations must be set forth in the petition and/or the supporting depositions … . The failure to comply with this requirement constitutes a nonwaivable jurisdictional defect that deprives the court of subject matter jurisdiction to entertain the petition or count … . Here, neither the petition nor the supporting deposition provided sworn, nonhearsay allegations as to the appellant’s age, which is an element of the crime of unlawful possession of weapons by persons under 16 … . Matter of Ricki I., 2018 NY Slip Op 00291, Second Dept 1-17-18
