FAILURE TO INCLUDE THE APPROXIMATE TIME OF THE COMMISSION OF THE OFFENSE IN THE SUPERIOR COURT INFORMATION (SCI) IS NOT A JURISDICTIONAL DEFECT (THIRD DEPT). ​

The Third Department determined that the Superior Court Information (SCI) was not jurisdictionally defective and therefore any attack on the validity of the SCI was precluded by the waiver of appeal:

Pursuant to our recent decisions in People v Elric YY. (179 AD3d 1304 [2020]) and People v Shindler (179 AD3d 1306 [2020]), defendant’s further contention that her 2015 waiver of indictment was jurisdictionally defective because the SCI did not set forth the approximate time of the commission of the charged crimes as required by CPL 195.20 is also without merit … . The omission of the approximate time of the charged crimes in the SCI, to which defendant did not object, is a nonjurisdictional defect to which any objection was forfeited by her guilty plea. Notably, no claim has been made that defendant lacked notice of the specific crimes for which she agreed to waive prosecution by indictment. People v Edwards, 2020 NY Slip Op 01671, Third Dept 3-12-20
