Ind No. 71086/23|Appeal No. 6560|Case No. 2024-06375|
Before: Moulton, J.P., Gesmer, Higgitt, Michael, Chan, JJ.
Jenay Nurse Guilford, Center for Appellate Litigation, New York (David J. Klem of counsel), for appellant.
Judgment, Supreme Court, Bronx County (Alvin M. Yearwood, J.), rendered September 04, 2024, convicting defendant of attempted second degree possession of a weapon, and sentencing him to one year imprisonment, unanimously modified, as a matter of discretion in the interest of justice, to the extent of vacating the surcharge and fees imposed on defendant at sentencing, and otherwise affirmed.
Based on our own interest of justice powers, we vacate the mandatory surcharge and fees imposed on defendant at sentencing (People v Chirinos, 190 AD3d 434 [1st Dept 2021]). We note that the People do not oppose this relief.
THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE SUPREME COURT, APPELLATE DIVISION, FIRST DEPARTMENT.
