THE OMISSION OF NON-ELEMENTAL FACTUAL INFORMATION, HERE THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT, FROM THE WAIVER OF INDICTMENT FORM WAS A DEFECT WAIVED BY THE GUILTY PLEA (CT APP).

The Court of Appeals, reversing the Appellate Division, determined the omission of the time of the incident from the waiver of indictment form was a defect waived by the guilty plea:

Shortly after the Appellate Division rendered its decision, we held in People v Lang (34 NY3d 545, 567 [2019]) that any “omission from the indictment waiver form of non-elemental factual information that is not necessary for a jurisdictionally-sound indictment is [] forfeited by a guilty plea” and “must be raised in the trial court” … . The time of incident is not an element of second-degree criminal possession of a weapon (Penal Law § 265.03 [2]), and defendant was on notice of the crime charged. Therefore, Lang controls. People v Zaquan Walley, 2020 NY Slip Op 07691, CtApp 12-22-20
