HEADNOTES


Appeal - Academic and Moot Questions - Challenge to Sentence after Completion

Appeal from judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (Laura A. Ward, J.), rendered December 11, 2017, convicting defendant, upon his plea of guilty, of criminal sale of a controlled substance in the third degree, and sentencing him, as a second felony drug offender, to a term of three years and 30 days, followed by 3 years of postrelease supervision, unanimously dismissed, as moot.

Defendant's challenges to the court's enhancement of his sentence are moot because he has completed his sentence (see People v Moore, 247 AD2d 228, 229 [1st Dept 1998], lv denied 91 NY2d 943 [1998]). We have considered defendant's remaining arguments and find them unavailing. Concur—Manzanet-Daniels, J.P., Friedman, Pitt-Burke, Rosado, Chan, JJ.
