NY Penal L § 70.85 (2014) What's This?
70.85 Transitional exception to determinate sentencing laws.

This section shall apply only to cases in which a determinate sentence
  was  imposed between September first, nineteen hundred ninety-eight, and
  the effective date of this section, and was required by law to include a
  term of post-release supervision, but the court did not explicitly state
  such a term when pronouncing sentence. When such a case is again  before
  the court pursuant to section six hundred one-d of the correction law or
  otherwise,  for  consideration  of whether to resentence, the court may,
  notwithstanding any other provision of law but only on  consent  of  the
  district attorney, re-impose the originally imposed determinate sentence
  of imprisonment without any term of post-release supervision, which then
  shall be deemed a lawful sentence.
