The People of the State of New York, Respondent,
v
Glenn A.Miller, Appellant.

[*1]Michele Marte-Indzonka, Newburgh, N.Y., for appellant. Francis D. Phillips II, DistrictAttorney, Goshen, N.Y. (Elizabeth L. Guinup and Andrew R. Kass of counsel), forrespondent.

Appeal by the defendant from an amended judgment of the County Court, Orange County(Freehill, J.), rendered September 25, 2007, revoking a sentence of probation previously imposed bythe same court upon a finding that he had violated a condition thereof, upon his admission, and imposinga sentence of imprisonment and postrelease supervision upon his previous conviction of sexual abuse inthe first degree.

Ordered that the amended judgment is reversed, on the law, the admission to the violation of acondition of probation is vacated, and the violation of probation petition is dismissed.

The People correctly concede that the defendant's admission that he violated a condition of hisprobation was not knowing, voluntary, and intelligent because the County Court did not advise him thatpostrelease supervision would be part of the sentence imposed upon the revocation of his probation (see People v Hill, 9 NY3d 189 [2007],cert denied 553 US 1048 [2008]; People v Louree, 8 NY3d 541 [2007]; People v Catu, 4 NY3d 242 [2005];People v Key, 64 AD3d 793[2009]; People v Kirksey, 56 AD3d573 [2008]). Thus, the amended judgment must be reversed, and the admission vacated (seePeople v Hill, 9 NY3d at 191-192; People v Louree, 8 NY3d at 545-546; People vCatu, 4 NY3d at 245; People vLindsay, 72 AD3d 845, 846 [2010]; People v Wilcox, 70 AD3d 1059 [2010]).

The defendant has fully served the two-year determinate term of imprisonment and 1½ yearsterm of postrelease supervision imposed by the County Court upon the revocation of his probation, andthe five-year term of probation originally imposed by the County Court on June 13, 2001, has alsoexpired. Under these circumstances, we deem it appropriate to dismiss the violation of probationpetition rather than to remit the matter for further proceedings (cf. People v Flynn, 79 NY2d879, 882 [1992]; People v Gibson, 54AD3d 350, 351 [2008]). Rivera, J.P., Covello, Eng, Leventhal and Austin, JJ., concur.
