Twyla Carter, New York, NY (Naila S. Siddiqui of counsel), for appellant.

Melinda Katz, District Attorney, Kew Gardens, NY (Johnnette Traill, William H. Branigan, and Lucy E. Pannes of counsel), for respondent.

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Toni M. Cimino, J.), rendered February 15, 2022, convicting her of criminal possession of a weapon in the fourth degree, upon her plea of guilty, and imposing sentence.

Ordered that the judgment is modified, on the law and as a matter of discretion in the interest of justice, by vacating the imposition of a mandatory surcharge and fees; as so modified, the judgment is affirmed.

"Criminal Procedure Law § 420.35 (2-a) permits the waiver of surcharges and fees for individuals, like the defendant, who were less than 21 years old at the time of the subject crime" (People v Cabrera, 222 AD3d 878, 879 [2023]). Pursuant to the exercise of our interest of justice jurisdiction, and as consented to by the People, we modify the judgment by vacating the mandatory surcharge and fees imposed upon the defendant at sentencing (see CPL 420.35 [2-a] [c]; People v Dillon H., 229 AD3d 722, 723 [2024]). Barros, J.P., Christopher, Warhit and McCormack, JJ., concur.
