N.Y. Criminal Procedure Law § 450.60: Appeal to intermediate appellate court; to what court taken

§ 450.60 Appeal to intermediate appellate court; to what court taken.

The particular intermediate appellate courts to which appeals

authorized by sections 450.10 and 450.20 must be taken are as follows:

1. An appeal from a judgment, sentence or order of the supreme court

must be taken to the appellate division of the department in which such

judgment, sentence or order was entered.

2. An appeal from a judgment, sentence or order of a county court

must be taken to the appellate division of the department in which such

judgment, sentence or order was entered.

3. An appeal from a judgment, sentence or order of a local criminal

court located outside of New York City must, except as otherwise

provided in this subdivision, be taken to the county court of the county

in which such judgment, sentence or order was entered.

If the appellate division of the second, third or fourth department

has established an appellate term of the supreme court for its

department, it may direct that appeals from such judgments, sentences

and orders of such local criminal courts, or of particular

classifications of such local criminal courts, be taken to such

appellate term of the supreme court instead of to the county court; and

in such case such an appeal must be so taken.

4. An appeal from a judgment, sentence or order of the New York City

criminal court must be taken, if such judgment, sentence or order was

entered at a term of such court held in New York or Bronx county, to the

appellate division of the first department, and, if entered at a term of

such court held in Kings, Queens or Richmond county, to the appellate

division of the second department; except that if the appellate division

of either such department has established an appellate term of the

supreme court for its department, it may direct that all such appeals be

taken thereto; and in such case such an appeal must be so taken.
