The People, etc., respondent, v. Treaston M. (Anonymous), appellant.
Submitted—March 2, 2026
DECISION & ORDER
M/
Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Danny Chun, J.), rendered June 14, 2023, adjudicating him a youthful offender, upon his plea of guilty to criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree, and imposing sentence.
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
The defendant contends that his adjudication as a youthful offender, upon his plea of guilty to criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree, violated the Second and Fourteenth Amendments to the United States Constitution for several reasons. None of the defendant's contentions in this regard are preserved for appellate review (see People v. David, 41 NY3d 90, 96; People v. Cabrera, 41 NY3d 35, 38–39; People v. Davidson, 98 N.Y.2d 738, 739; People v. Luperon, 85 N.Y.2d 71, 78), and we decline to reach them in the exercise of our interest of justice jurisdiction.
LASALLE, P.J., CHRISTOPHER, LANDICINO and MCCORMACK, JJ., concur.
