People v. Cruz
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York · Decided October 8, 2002
298 A.D.2d 165; 748 N.Y.S.2d 474; 2002 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 9501
People v. Cruz

Opinion of the Court

Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (Bonnie Wittner, J.), rendered October 1, 1999, convicting defendant, upon his plea of guilty, of criminal possession of a weapon in the third degree, and sentencing him, as a second felony offender, to a term of three years, unanimously affirmed.

Defendant’s constitutional challenge to the procedure under which he was sentenced as a second felony offender is unpreserved for appellate review and, in any event, is without merit (see People v Rosen, 96 NY2d 329, cert denied 534 US 899). Concur — Andrias, J.P., Saxe, Buckley and Lerner, JJ.
