YOUTHFUL OFFENDER DETERMINATION MUST BE MADE IN EVERY CASE WHERE DEFENDANT IS ELIGIBLE, CARE REMITTED FOR THAT DETERMINATION (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department noted that the sentencing court did not make a youthful offender determination, which must be made in every case where a defendant is eligible. The matter was remitted for the determination:

​

CPL 720.20(1) requires a court to make a youthful offender determination in every case where the defendant is eligible, even where the defendant fails to request it … . Here, as the People correctly concede, the record does not demonstrate that the Supreme Court made such a determination. Accordingly, we vacate the sentence imposed, and remit the matter to the Supreme Court, Kings County, for resentencing after making this determination … . We express no opinion as to whether the court should afford youthful offender status to the defendant. People v Keizer, 2018 NY Slip Op 00438, Second Dept 1-24-18
