UPON CONVICTION OF ROBBERY SECOND, ROBBERY THIRD, AS A LESSER INCLUDED OFFENSE, MUST BE DISMISSED (SECOND DEPT). ​

The Second Department noted that robbery third is a lesser included offense of robbery second and must be dismissed upon conviction of robbery second:

… [R]obbery in the third degree is a lesser included offense of robbery in the second degree (see CPL 300.30[4] …). A verdict of guilt upon the greater count is deemed a dismissal of every lesser count (see CPL 300.40[3]). Accordingly, we vacate the conviction of robbery in the third degree and the sentence imposed thereon, and dismiss that count of the indictment … . People v Hardy, 2022 NY Slip Op 04820, Second Dept 8-3-22

Practice Point: Upon conviction of the greater offense, a lesser included offense must be dismissed.
