Eric Gonzalez, District Attorney, Brooklyn, NY (Leonard Joblove and Julian Joiris of counsel), for respondent.

DECISION & ORDER

Appeal by the defendant from an order of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Danny K. Chun, J.), dated October 20, 2016, which, after a hearing, designated him a level one sex offender pursuant to Correction Law article 6-C.

ORDERED that the order is affirmed, without costs or disbursements.

The defendant challenges his certification as a sex offender under the Sex Offender Registration Act (Correction Law article 6-C; hereinafter SORA), contending that he was not convicted of a sex offense as that term is defined under Correction Law § 168-a(2)(a). This contention is not reviewable on the instant appeal from an order designating the defendant's risk level under SORA (see People v Matos, 209 AD3d 19). Such a challenge is properly made on an appeal from the judgment of conviction (see id.). Accordingly, we affirm the order.

RIVERA, J.P., MALTESE, FORD and TAYLOR, JJ., concur.
