People v. Letterlough

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department

205 A.D.2d 803 (N.Y. App. Div. 1994)

Opinion

June 27, 1994

Appeal from the County Court, Nassau County (Mogil, J.).


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant was convicted of driving while under the influence of alcohol as a felony, and was sentenced to a term of five years probation. As a result of the conviction, the defendant's driving license was also revoked. As a condition of probation, the County Court directed that if the defendant regained his license during the five-year probationary period, he had to affix to the license plates of any vehicle that he drove a fluorescent sign stating "CONVICTED DWI". Contrary to the defendant's arguments, we find no statutory or constitutional violation in the imposition of this condition (see, Penal Law § 65.10, [2] [l]; see, Goldschmitt v. Florida, 490 So.2d 123 [Fla]; Lindsay v. Florida, 606 So.2d 652 [Fla]). Mangano, P.J., Altman, Hart and Florio, JJ., concur.
