APPEARANCES OF COUNSEL
Jenay Nurse Guilford, Center for Appellate Litigation, New York (Leanna J. Duncan of counsel), for appellant.
Darcel D. Clark, District Attorney, Bronx (Mary McGarvey-DePuy of counsel), for respondent.
Judgment, Supreme Court, Bronx County (Steven J. Hornstein, J.), rendered March 6, 2024, convicting defendant, upon his plea of guilty, of attempted criminal possession of a weapon in the third degree, and sentencing him, as a second violent felony offender, to a term of three years, unanimously affirmed.
Defendant's Second Amendment challenges to New York's revised gun licensing scheme are unpreserved because he failed to argue in his motion to dismiss the indictment that the "good moral character" provision is "vague and discretionary," or that there is "no historical analogue" to New York's lifetime firearms ban for any person previously convicted of a crime (see People v Cabrera, 41 NY3d 35, 42-51 [2023]), and we decline to review them in the interest of justice. As an alternative holding, we find them unavailing. Concur—Scarpulla, J.P., Friedman, Shulman, Rodriguez, Rosado, JJ.
