DECISION & ORDER
Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the County Court, Dutchess County (Craig Stephen Brown, J.), rendered June 24, 2016, convicting him of aggravated family offense (two counts), upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence.
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
Contrary to the defendant's contention, the County Court did not err in not sua sponte ordering a competency hearing pursuant to CPL 730.30 prior to conducting an Outley hearing (see People v. Outley, 80 N.Y.2d 702, 594 N.Y.S.2d 683, 610 N.E.2d 356 ) and imposing sentence (see People v. Morgan, 87 N.Y.2d 878, 879–880, 638 N.Y.S.2d 942, 662 N.E.2d 260 ; People v. Rojas, 43 A.D.3d 413, 840 N.Y.S.2d 152 ; People v. Jones, 25 A.D.3d 809, 810, 807 N.Y.S.2d 653 ; People v. Jordan, 21 A.D.3d 1039, 800 N.Y.S.2d 850 ).
The defendant's remaining contention is without merit.
DILLON, J.P., MILLER, LASALLE and IANNACCI, JJ., concur.
