PEOPLE v. MARYWAL (2023)

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

The PEOPLE of the State of New York, Respondent, v. MARYWAL G., Defendant-Appellant.

703 Decided: October 03, 2023

Oing, J.P., Friedman, Kennedy, Shulman, Pitt–Burke, JJ.

Twyla Carter, The Legal Aid Society, New York (Alyssa Gamliel of counsel), for appellant.

Judgment, Supreme Court, Bronx County (Julio Rodriguez III, J.), rendered August 14, 2018, convicting defendant, upon her guilty plea, of burglary in the third degree, adjudicating her a youthful offender, and sentencing her to a conditional discharge for a period of three years, unanimously modified, as a matter of discretion in the interest of justice, to the extent of vacating the surcharge and crime victim assistance fee imposed at sentencing, and otherwise affirmed.

Based on our own interest of justice powers, we vacate the surcharge and fees imposed on defendant at sentencing (see People v. Chirinos, 190 AD3d 434 [1st Dept 2021]). We note that the People do not oppose this relief.
