[*1]The People of the State of New York, ex rel. Richard Torres, on behalf of Dovontay Jackson, petitioner,

v

Warden, Anna M. Kross Center, et al., respondent.



Richard Torres, Brooklyn, NY, petitioner pro se.

Georgia M. Pestana, Corporation Counsel, New York, NY (Melanie T. West and Kevin Osowski of counsel), for respondent.

Eric Gonzalez, District Attorney, Brooklyn, NY (Nikita Mehta of counsel), nonparty pro se.



DECISION & JUDGMENT

Writ of habeas corpus, inter alia, in the nature of an application to release Dovontay Jackson upon his own recognizance or, in the alternative, in effect, to set reasonable bail upon Kings County Indictment No. 72592/2021.

ADJUDGED that the writ is dismissed, without costs or disbursements.

The determination of the Supreme Court, Kings County, did not violate "constitutional or statutory standards" (People ex rel. Klein v Krueger, 25 NY2d 497, 499; see People ex rel. Rosenthal v Wolfson, 48 NY2d 230; People ex rel. Litman v Spano, 197 AD3d 1211).

The petitioner's remaining contention is without merit.

MALTESE, J.P., DUFFY, IANNACCI and FORD, JJ., concur.

ENTER: Maria T. Fasulo Clerk of the Court
