SUPREME COURT DID NOT MAKE THE REQUIRED FINDINGS RE: WHETHER DEFENDANT SHOULD BE AFFORDED YOUTHFUL OFFENDER STATUS; MATTER REMITTED (SECOND DEPT).

​The Second Department determined Supreme Court did not make the required findings re: whether defendant should be afforded youthful offender status and remitted the matter:

CPL 720.20(1) requires “that there be a youthful offender determination in every case where the defendant is eligible, even where the defendant fails to request it, or agrees to forgo it as part of a plea bargain” … . With regard to the defendant’s conviction of criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree …, which, contrary to the defendant’s contention, is an armed felony (see CPL 1.20[41]; Penal Law §§ 70.02[1][b]; 265.03[3] …), the People concede that the Supreme Court improperly failed to determine on the record whether the defendant was an “eligible youth” (CPL 720.10[2], [3]) and, if so, whether he should be afforded youthful offender treatment … . With regard to the defendant’s conviction of resisting arrest …, the defendant contends, and the People concede, that the court also failed to determine whether he should be afforded youthful offender status (see CPL 720.20[1]). The parties are correct that the record does not demonstrate that the court made either of these required determinations … . People v Hunter, 2022 NY Slip Op 01320, Second Dept 3-2-22
