Opinion

Judgments, Supreme Court, Bronx County (Martin Marcus, J.), rendered June 26, 2014, as amended December 13, 2016, convicting defendant, upon his pleas of guilty, of criminal possession of a forged instrument in the second degree and grand larceny in the third degree, and sentencing him, as a second felony offender, to an aggregate term of 2V2 to 5 years, unanimously affirmed.

Defendant was properly adjudicated a second felony offender based upon a New Jersey drug conviction. The court properly consulted the accusatory instrument (see People v Jurgins, 26 NY3d 607, 613-614 [2015]), which established that the predicate crime involved possession with intent to distribute heroin (see People v Santiago, 143 AD3d 545 [1st Dept 2016], lv denied 28 NY3d 1127 [2016]; People v West, 58 AD3d 483 [1st Dept 2009], lv denied 12 NY3d 822 [2009]). We decline to revisit our prior holdings on this issue.
