THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, RESPONDENT,
V MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
SHAWN GLOVER, DEFENDANT-APPELLANT.
TIMOTHY P. DONAHER, PUBLIC DEFENDER, ROCHESTER (DAVID R. JUERGENS OF
COUNSEL), FOR DEFENDANT-APPELLANT.
SHAWN GLOVER, DEFENDANT-APPELLANT PRO SE.
SANDRA DOORLEY, DISTRICT ATTORNEY, ROCHESTER (MATTHEW DUNHAM OF
COUNSEL), FOR RESPONDENT.
Appeal, by permission of a Justice of the Appellate Division of
the Supreme Court in the Fourth Judicial Department, from an order of
the Monroe County Court (Frank P. Geraci, Jr., J.), entered October
14, 2012. The order denied defendant’s motion seeking, inter alia, to
vacate the judgment of conviction pursuant to CPL 440.10.
It is hereby ORDERED that the order so appealed from is
unanimously modified on the law by granting defendant’s motion in part
and the judgment entered September 4, 1996 is modified by directing
that the sentences imposed on counts four and five shall run
concurrently with the sentence imposed on count one, and as modified
the order is affirmed.
Memorandum: Defendant appeals, by permission of this Court, from
an order denying his pro se motion pursuant to CPL article 440
seeking, inter alia, to vacate the judgment convicting him of murder
in the second degree (Penal Law § 125.25 [3] [felony murder]) and four
counts of robbery in the first degree (§ 160.15 [1], [4]) in
connection with the robbery of two men, and the death of one of those
victims. We previously affirmed that judgment of conviction (People v
Glover, 266 AD2d 862, lv denied 94 NY2d 862). We note at the outset
that the contentions raised by defendant in his pro se supplemental
brief were not raised in his CPL article 440 motion and are therefore
not properly before us (see People v Pennington, 107 AD3d 1602, 1604,
lv denied 22 NY3d 958). In his main brief, defendant contends that
the sentence imposed is illegal insofar as the judgment directs that
the sentences imposed on the two counts of robbery with respect to the
surviving victim shall run consecutively to, rather than concurrently
with, the sentence imposed on the felony murder count. We agree that
County Court erred in denying his motion to that extent, and we
-2- 432
KA 12-02226
therefore modify the order accordingly (see CPL 440.20 [1]).
“[B]ecause the indictment did not specify which of the robbery counts
served as the predicate for the felony murder count,” the sentences
imposed on counts four and five must run concurrently with the
sentence imposed on the felony murder count (People v Davis, 68 AD3d
1653, 1655, lv denied 14 NY3d 839; see People v Parks, 95 NY2d 811,
814-815).
