<p>Defendant appeals from a judgment of the Criminal Court of the City of New York, New York County (Felicia A. Mennin, J.), rendered July 31, 2012, convicting her, upon a plea of guilty, of petit larceny, and imposing sentence.</p> 

 

 

 

 

<p>Per Curiam.</p> 

<p>Judgment of conviction (Felicia A. Mennin, J.), rendered July 31, 2012, affirmed.</p> 

<p>In view of defendant's waiver of the right to prosecution by information, the accusatory instrument only had to satisfy the reasonable cause requirement (<i>see People v Dumay</i>, 23 NY3d 518, 522 [2014]). So viewed, the accusatory instrument charging petit larceny was jurisdictionally valid, since it gave defendant sufficient notice of the charged conduct to prepare a defense and avoid double jeopardy (<i>see People v Kasse</i>, 22 NY3d 1142 [2014]), specified information from which the taking and intent elements of the offense could be inferred (<i>see People v Olivo</i>, 52 NY2d 309 [1981]), and provided reasonable cause to believe that defendant wrongfully took property from the owner thereof (<i>see</i> Penal Law  155.25, 155.05).</p> 

<p>Defendant's argument that her guilty plea was invalid because the court failed to advise her of her constitutional rights under <i>Boykin v Alabama</i> (395 US 238 [1969]) is unpreserved, since defendant "could have sought relief from the sentencing court in advance of the sentence's imposition" (<i>People v Murray</i>, 15 NY3d 725, 727 [2010];<a href="../2014/2014_09048.htm" target="_blank"><i> see People v Jackson</i>, 123 AD3d 634</a> [2014], <i>lv denied </i>25 NY3d 1202 [2015]), and we decline to review this unpreserved claim in the interest of justice. As an alternative holding, we find the record as a whole establishes the voluntariness of the plea (<a href="../2015/2015_08615.htm" target="_blank"><i>see People v Conceicao</i>, 26 NY3d 375</a> [2015]).</p> 

<p>THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE COURT.</p>
