v
WILLIE J. GOINS, III, DEFENDANT-APPELLANT.
JULIE CIANCA, PUBLIC DEFENDER, ROCHESTER (TONYA PLANK OF COUNSEL), FOR DEFENDANT-APPELLANT.
SANDRA DOORLEY, DISTRICT ATTORNEY, ROCHESTER (AMY N. WALENDZIAK OF COUNSEL), FOR RESPONDENT.
Appeal from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Monroe County (Thomas E. Moran, J.), rendered January 21, 2020. The judgment convicted defendant upon his plea of guilty of attempted criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree.
It is hereby ORDERED that the judgment so appealed from is unanimously affirmed.
Memorandum: On appeal from a judgment convicting him upon his plea of guilty of attempted criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree (Penal Law §§ 110.00, 265.03 [3]), defendant challenges the constitutionality of Penal Law § 265.03 in light of the United States Supreme Court's decision in New York State Rifle & Pistol Assn., Inc. v Bruen (597 US 1 [2022]). Defendant failed to raise any such challenge before Supreme Court, and his challenge therefore is not preserved for our review (see CPL 470.05 [2]; People v Cabrera, 41 NY3d 35, 42-51 [2023]; People v David, 41 NY3d 90, 97-100 [2023]; People v Rouse, 225 AD3d 1120, 1121 [4th Dept 2024], lv denied 41 NY3d 985 [2024]). We decline to exercise our power to review it as a matter of discretion in the interest of justice (see CPL 470.15 [3] [c]).
