THE MURDER SECOND DEGREE COUNTS MUST BE DISMISSED AS INCLUSORY CONCURRENT COUNTS OF MURDER FIRST DEGREE (THIRD DEPT).

The Third Department determined the second degree murder counts must be dismissed as inclusory concurrent counts of defendant’s murder first degree convictions:

… [W]e agree with defendant’s contention that his convictions for second degree murder (counts 2 and 3) must be dismissed as inclusory concurrent counts of his convictions for murder in the first degree (counts 7, 8 and 9) (see CPL 300.40 [3] [b]). People v Burton, 2023 NY Slip Op 01919, Third Dept 4-13-23

Practice Point: Here the murder second degree convictions were reversed as inclusory concurrent counts of the murder first degree convictions.
