PEOPLE v. DEONTAE (2023)

Supreme Court, Appellate Division, First Department, New York.

The PEOPLE of the State of New York, Respondent, v. DEONTAE S., Defendant–Appellant.

620-, 620A

Decided: September 26, 2023

Manzanet–Daniels, J.P., Mendez, Shulman, Rosado, O'Neill Levy, JJ.

Twyla Carter, The Legal Aid Society, New York (Ji Hyun Rhim of counsel), for appellant. Darcel D. Clark, District Attorney, Bronx (Emily Aldrige of counsel), for respondent.

Judgments, Supreme Court, Bronx County (Miriam Best, J.), rendered June 9, 2017, convicting defendant, upon his pleas of guilty, of robbery in the third degree and attempted robbery in the first and second degrees, adjudicating him a youthful offender as to attempted robbery in the first and second degrees, and sentencing him to aggregate prison term of 11/313 to 4 years, unanimously modified, as a matter of discretion in the interest of justice, to the extent of vacating the surcharges and fees imposed at sentencing, and otherwise affirmed.

Based on our own interest of justice powers, we vacate the surcharge and fees imposed at sentencing (see People v. Chirinos, 190 A.D.3d 434, 135 N.Y.S.3d 641 [1st Dept. 2021]). We note that the People do not oppose defendant's application.
