THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, Respondent, v SIDNEY BRIGGS, Appellant.

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department

918 NYS2d 595

The defendant was convicted, upon his plea of guilty, of rape in the first degree and endangering the welfare of a child. In 2003, the defendant was sentenced to a determinate term of imprisonment of eight years upon his conviction of rape in the first degree, and a definite term of imprisonment of one year upon his conviction of endangering the welfare of a child, respectively, the terms to run concurrently with each other. In 2009 the defendant was brought before the Supreme Court for resentencing, so that a period of postrelease supervision could be imposed (see Penal Law § 70.45).

Since the defendant had not yet been released from incarceration on the original sentence when he was resentenced, his resentencing to a term including the statutorily required period of postrelease supervision did not subject him to double jeopardy or violate his right to due process of law (see People v Ware, 78 AD3d 743, 744 [2010]; People v Misla, 78 AD3d 735 [2010], lv denied 16 NY3d 744 [2011]; People v Gittens, 77 AD3d 765 [2010]; People v Pruitt, 74 AD3d 1366 [2010]; People v Tillman, 74 AD3d 1251 [2010]; People v Mendez, 73 AD3d 951 [2010]; People v Parisi, 72 AD3d 989 [2010], lv granted 15 NY3d 776 [2010]; People v Scalercio, 71 AD3d 1060, 1061 [2010]; People v Prendergast, 71 AD3d 1055 [2010], lv granted 15 NY3d 808 [2010]). Mastro, J.P., Skelos, Leventhal and Roman, JJ., concur.
