Appeals, Criminal Law

DEFENDANT’S WAIVER OF APPEAL DID NOT REMAIN VALID AFTER DEFENDANT PLED GUILTY TO A DIFFERENT CRIME WHEN THE INITIAL SENTENCE PROMISE COULD NOT BE FULFILLED (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department determined defendant’s waiver of appeal was invalid because his consent to the waiver was not renewed after he pled to a different crime after the initial sentence promise could not met:

… [T]he Supreme Court was unable to fulfill its sentencing commitment because the sentence it had promised was illegal … . Although the defendant ultimately agreed to plead guilty to a different crime in return for a different sentence, the modification of the material terms of the original plea agreement “vitiated defendant’s knowing and intelligent entry of the waiver of appeal”… . Under such circumstances, “it was incumbent on the court to elicit defendant’s continuing consent to waive his right to appeal” … . Since the court did not obtain the defendant’s continuing consent to waive his right to appeal after the material terms of the original plea agreement were changed, the defendant is not precluded from arguing that the sentence imposed was excessive … . People v Ellison, 2019 NY Slip Op 07413, Second Dept 10-16-19
