[*1]THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, RESPONDENT,

v

JAKWAN CURRY, DEFENDANT-APPELLANT. (APPEAL NO. 1.)


JULIE CIANCA, PUBLIC DEFENDER, ROCHESTER (DREW R. DUBRIN OF COUNSEL), FOR DEFENDANT-APPELLANT.

SANDRA DOORLEY, DISTRICT ATTORNEY, ROCHESTER (MARTIN P. MCCARTHY, II, OF COUNSEL), FOR RESPONDENT.



Appeal from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Monroe County (Thomas E. Moran, J.), rendered October 18, 2021. The judgment convicted defendant, upon his plea of guilty, of criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree.

It is hereby ORDERED that the judgment so appealed from is unanimously affirmed.

Memorandum: In appeal No. 1, defendant appeals from a judgment that convicted him, following his plea of guilty, of criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree (Penal Law § 265.03 [3]). In appeal No. 2, defendant appeals from a separate judgment that convicted him, following his plea of guilty, of criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree (id.).

Defendant's sole contention in each appeal—that Penal Law § 265.03 (3) is unconstitutional in light of the United States Supreme Court's decision in New York State Rifle & Pistol Assn., Inc. v Bruen (597 US 1 [2022])—is unpreserved for our review (see People v Bell, 229 AD3d 1178, 1179 [4th Dept 2024], lv denied 42 NY3d 1018 [2024]; People v Sapp, 225 AD3d 1280, 1280 [4th Dept 2024], lv denied 41 NY3d 1020 [2024]; People v Williams, 224 AD3d 1355, 1355 [4th Dept 2024], lv denied 42 NY3d 941 [2024]; see generally People v Cabrera, 41 NY3d 35, 39, 42-47 [2023]).
