People v. Walker

Appeal by the defendant from an order of the County Court, Suffolk County (Kahn, J.), dated February 28, 2014, which, after a hearing, designated him a level three sex offender pursuant to Correction Law article 6-C.

Ordered that the order is affirmed, without costs or disbursements.

There was clear and convincing evidence to support the County Court’s determination to designate the defendant a level three sex offender (see People v Fisher, 36 AD3d 880 [2007]; People v Inghilleri, 21 AD3d 404 [2005]; People v Guarnan, 8 AD3d 545 [2004]). There is no merit to the defendant’s contention that he was entitled to a downward departure from this risk level (see People v Gillotti, 23 NY3d 841 , 861 [2014]; People v Wyatt, 89 AD3d 112 , 121 [2011]).

Leventhal, J.P., Hall, Austin and Sgroi, JJ., concur.
