PERIODS OF POSTRELEASE SUPERVISION MERGE AND CANNOT RUN CONSECUTIVELY, ILLEGAL SENTENCE MUST BE CORRECTED EVEN IF ISSUE NOT RAISED ON APPEAL (FOURTH DEPT).

The Fourth Department noted that periods of postrelease supervision cannot run consecutively. An illegal sentence must be corrected even if the issue is not raised on appeal:

​

… [T]he court erred in directing that the periods of postrelease supervision run consecutively to the periods of postrelease supervision imposed in appeal No. 1 … . “Penal Law § 70.45 (5) (c) requires that the periods of postrelease supervision merge and are satisfied by the service of the longest unexpired term” … . We cannot allow an illegal sentence to stand … and we therefore modify the judgment …  accordingly. People v Mcmillian, 2018 NY Slip Op 00649, Fourth Dept 2-2-18
