PEOPLE v. WEEKES (2023)

Supreme Court, Appellate Term, New York,

The PEOPLE of the State of New York, Respondent, v. Alton WEEKES, Defendant-Appellant.

21-068

Decided: September 18, 2023

PRESENT: Hagler, P.J., Brigantti, James, JJ.

Judgment of conviction (Keshia J. Espinal, J.), rendered October 11, 2019, affirmed.

Defendant waived his statutory speedy trial claim by failing to make a written motion to dismiss on this ground and by pleading guilty (see People v Lawrence, 64 NY2d 200, 204 [1984]; People v Courtney, 249 AD2d 485, 486 [1998]). Thus, the issue is not properly before this Court (see People v Jordan, 62 NY2d 825 [1984]; People v O'Brien, 56 NY2d 1009 [1982]).

THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE COURT.
