ROBBERY THIRD AND ASSAULT SECOND CONVICTIONS REVERSED AS LESSER INCLUDED OFFENSES OF ROBBERY SECOND (FOURTH DEPT).

The Fourth Department, reversed the robbery third and assault second convictions as lesser included offenses of robbery second:

… [R]obbery in the third degree is a lesser included offense of robbery in the second degree … . Moreover, although not raised by the parties, we note that assault in the second degree under section 120.05 (6) is a lesser included offense of robbery in the second degree under section 160.10 (2) (a) … . We therefore modify the judgment by reversing those parts convicting defendant of robbery in the third degree and assault in the second degree and dismissing counts one and three of the indictment … . People v Coleman, 2022 NY Slip Op 03842, Fourth Dept 6-9-22

Practice Point: Here the robbery third and assault second convictions were reversed as lesser included offenses of robbery second.
