… [T]he defendant was improperly adjudicated a persistent violent felony offender, as he committed his second violent felony offense prior to the time when he was sentenced for his first felony conviction (Penal Law § § 70.08[1], 70.04[1][b][ii]; CPL 400.16 [2]; see People v Morse, 62 NY2d 205; People v Ritorto, 125 AD3d 896; People v Cooper, 245 AD2d 569) … . People v Robinson, 2020 NY Slip Op 06151, Second Dept 10-28-20
