Criminal Law

DEFENDANT SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN SENTENCED AS A PERSISTENT VIOLENT FELONY OFFENDER BECAUSE HE COMMITTED HIS SECOND OFFENSE BEFORE HE WAS SENTENCED FOR HIS FIRST OFFENSE (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department determined defendant should not have been sentenced as a persistent violent felony offender:

… [T]he defendant was improperly adjudicated a persistent violent felony offender, as he committed his second violent felony offense prior to the time when he was sentenced for his first felony conviction (Penal Law § § 70.08[1], 70.04[1][b][ii]; CPL 400.16 [2]; see People v Morse, 62 NY2d 205; People v Ritorto, 125 AD3d 896; People v Cooper, 245 AD2d 569) … . People v Robinson, 2020 NY Slip Op 06151, Second Dept 10-28-20
