[*1]The People of the State of New York, respondent,

v

Dayvon Battle, appellant.


Patricia Pazner, New York, NY (Samantha Jerabek of counsel), for appellant.

Melinda Katz, District Attorney, Kew Gardens, NY (Johnnette Traill and Charles T. Pollak of counsel; Agnes T. Chang on the brief), for respondent.



DECISION & ORDER

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Michael J. Yavinsky, J.), rendered May 10, 2023, convicting him of criminal contempt in the second degree, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence.

ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant's contention regarding the duration of the orders of protection issued at the time of sentencing is unpreserved for appellate review, as the defendant failed to object to the duration of the orders of protection at sentencing (see CPL 470.05[2]; People v Nieves, 2 NY3d 310, 316-318; People v Almonds, 238 AD3d 893). Under the circumstances, we decline to reach this contention in the exercise of our interest of justice jurisdiction (see People v Demilio, 227 AD3d 1098, 1100-1101; People v Mensah, 221 AD3d 732, 733).

BARROS, J.P., DOWLING, VENTURA and MCCORMACK, JJ., concur.

Darrell M. Joseph
