The People v. Fabian Greene

Summary

The Court of Appeals modified the Appellate Division's order by vacating one of defendant's multiplicitous perjury convictions and dismissing the corresponding indictment count, while affirming the judgment in all other respects. It held that dismissal is required to remedy multiplicitous convictions even when the convictions do not affect the sentence, and rejected defendant's remaining preserved challenge to the jury instructions. The court also noted that defendant's other claims were unpreserved.
