Based on this uncontested evidence, there is a valid line of reasoning and permissible inferences by which the jury could rationally conclude ( see People v Bleakley , 69 NY2d 490, 495 ; People v Contes , 60 NY2d 620, 621 ) that the defendant knowingly and voluntarily possessed the weapon in a manner and place that violated Penal Law § 265.03(3), [*3]inconsistent with a claim of temporary and innocent possession ( see People v Snyder , 73 NY2d 900, 902 [retaining gun overnight after taking it during an altercation]; People v Williams , 50 NY2d at 1045 [secreting gun in a hiding place]; People…

Retaining a gun beyond opportunities to safely relinquish it is “ ‘utterly at odds’ ” with any claim of innocent possession (People v Snyder, 73 NY2d 900, 902 [1989], quoting People v Williams, 50 NY2d 1043, 1045 [1980]; see People v Hawkins, 258 AD2d at 472).

v.
Evelyn Jiminez, Also Known as Evely Givens, Also Known as Nancy Rodriguez
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York.
Jan 19, 1999.
258 A.D.2d 472
Published

—Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (William Leibovitz, J., at first plea; Allen Alpert, J., at second plea; Michael Gross, J., at sentence), rendered November 6, 1997, convicting defendant, upon her plea of guilty, of attempted criminal sale of a controlled substance in the third degree, and sentencing her, as a second felony offender, to a term of 3V2 to 7 years, unanimously reversed, on the law, the plea of guilty and waiver of indictment vacated, the superior court information dismissed, the felony complaint charging criminal sale of a controlled substance in the third degree reinstated, and the matter remanded for further proceedings.

As the People correctly concede, the waiver of indictment and the plea of guilty to the attempted third-degree sale count must be vacated as jurisdictionally defective, since the plea was entered to a crime that was of a higher degree than the crime charged in the superior court information, rather than being a lesser included offense (see, People v Johnson, 89 NY2d 905, 907-908).
