AFTER PLEADING GUILTY IN FULL SATISFACTION OF THE CHARGES IN THE INDICTMENT, A SECOND PLEA TO ANOTHER COUNT OF THE INDICTMENT WAS PRECLUDED (FIRST DEPT).

The First Department, vacating defendant’s conviction by guilty plea and dismissing the relevant count, determined initial pleas in full satisfaction of the charges in the indictment precluded a second plea to another count in the indictment:

As the People concede, defendant’s first plea, to one count of third-degree sale of a controlled substance, was in full satisfaction of the entire indictment, so that defendant’s later plea to a second count of that indictment was not permissible … . When the second plea court sought to add a plea to an additional count as part of a renegotiated disposition conditioned on drug treatment, it could only have done so by “reinstatement. . . [of the indictment] which could have been accomplished by permitting the defendant to withdraw his original plea of guilty to [the first count]” … . People v Turane, 2021 NY Slip Op 07071, First Dept 12-16-21
