People v Jones (Leelon)
Annotate this CaseDecided on April 12, 2016
SUPREME COURT, APPELLATE TERM, FIRST DEPARTMENT
PRESENT: Lowe, III, P.J., Schoenfeld, Ling-Cohan, JJ.
570202/14
The People of the State of New York, Respondent,
against
Leelon Jones, Defendant-Appellant.
Defendant appeals from a judgment of the Criminal Court of the City of New York, New York County (Erika M. Edwards, J.), rendered October 28, 2013, convicting him, upon a plea of guilty, of criminal possession of a weapon in the fourth degree, and imposing sentence.
Per Curiam.
Judgment of conviction (Erika M. Edwards, J.), rendered October 28, 2013, affirmed.
Defendant's guilty plea was knowing, intelligent and voluntary. The court sufficiently advised defendant of all the rights he was giving up by pleading guilty (see Boykin v Alabama, 395 US 238 [1969]), "notwithstanding that it omitted the word jury' from its reference to giving up the right to a trial" (People v Terrell, 134 AD3d 651 [2015]).
THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE COURT.
