v
Antonio Sutton, appellant.
Laurette D. Mulry, Riverhead, NY (Felice B. Milani of counsel), for appellant.
Raymond A. Tierney, District Attorney, Riverhead, NY (Karla Lato of counsel), for respondent.
DECISION & ORDER
Appeal by the defendant from an order of the Supreme Court, Suffolk County (Chris Ann Kelley, J.), dated February 10, 2020, which, after a hearing, designated him a level one sexually violent offender pursuant to Correction Law article 6-C.
ORDERED that the order is affirmed, without costs or disbursements.
The Supreme Court's designation of the defendant as a level one sexually violent offender was supported by clear and convincing evidence (see Correction Law § 168-n[3]; People v Smith, 103 AD3d 616, 616). The defendant was properly designated a sexually violent offender based upon his conviction of a sex offense in North Carolina (see Correction Law § 168-a[3]; People v Uver A., 195 AD3d 61, 63; People v Terry, 177 AD3d 494, 494; People v Alvarez, 166 AD3d 570, 570; People v Maldonado, 147 AD3d 798, 799; People v Lopez, 146 AD3d 477, 477; People v Smith, 103 AD3d at 616).
The defendant's remaining contention is unpreserved for appellate review and, in any event, without merit.
BARROS, J.P., CHAMBERS, MILLER and ZAYAS, JJ., concur.
