People v. Cummings

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, First Department
Jun 4, 1985
111 A.D.2d 622 (N.Y. App. Div. 1985)

Opinion

June 4, 1985

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Bronx County (Grey, J.).


Since, as the People forthrightly concede, defendant committed the second of his violent felony offenses on January 8, 1975, which was prior to the January 24, 1975 sentence imposed on his first violent felony offense conviction, he could not, under the holding of People v. Morse ( 62 N.Y.2d 205), be adjudicated a persistent violent felony offender, at least on the basis of those two convictions. Accordingly, we vacate said finding and the sentences based thereon, and remand for resentence.

Concur — Sandler, J.P., Sullivan, Carro, Lynch and Rosenberger, JJ.
