Opinion
Order, Supreme Court, New York County (Renee A. White, J.), entered on or about March 18, 2014, which adjudicated defendant a level two sex offender pursuant to the Sex Offender Registration Act (Correction Law art 6-C), unanimously affirmed, without costs.
The court properly exercised its discretion when it declined to grant a downward departure (see People v Gillotti, 23 NY3d 841 [2014]). The mitigating factors cited by defendant are inadequately substantiated, and are in any event outweighed by the seriousness of the underlying sex crime and defendant’s prior record.
