Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
May 13, 2002
294 A.D.2d 452 (N.Y. App. Div. 2002)

Opinion

2000-11047

Argued April 8, 2002.

May 13, 2002.

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Reichbach, J.), rendered November 27, 2000, convicting him of conspiracy in the fifth degree, criminal possession of stolen property in the third degree, grand larceny in the third degree, and official misconduct, upon a jury verdict, and sentencing him to a determinate term of imprisonment of 90 days and five years probation.

DePalma Lasky Santamauro, Staten Island, N.Y. (Joseph M. Lasky of counsel), for appellant.

Charles J. Hynes, District Attorney, Brooklyn, N.Y. (Leonard Joblove and Jane S. Meyers of counsel), for respondent.

Before: DAVID S. RITTER, J.P., SANDRA J. FEUERSTEIN, GLORIA GOLDSTEIN, BARRY A. COZIER, JJ.


ORDERED that the judgment is modified, on the law, by vacating the sentence imposed thereon; as so modified, the judgment is affirmed, and the matter is remitted to the Supreme Court, Kings County, for resentencing in accordance with CPL 380.20, and for further proceedings pursuant to CPL 460.50(5).

The defendant's claim of ineffective assistance of counsel involves matters outside the record and is therefore not properly presented on direct appeal (see People v. Bennett, 284 A.D.2d 338).

The Supreme Court failed to pronounce a clear sentence on each of the counts of which the defendant was convicted. Therefore, the matter must be remitted to the Supreme Court, Kings County, for resentencing in accordance with CPL 380.20 (see People v. Sturgis, 69 N.Y.2d 816; People v. McFadden, 261 A.D.2d 417; People v. Cuccuru, 236 A.D.2d 419).

The defendant's remaining contentions are unpreserved for appellate review, and in any event, are without merit.

RITTER, J.P., FEUERSTEIN, GOLDSTEIN and COZIER, JJ., concur.
