[63 NE3d 1152, 41 NYS3d 208]
    The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v James M. Roshia, Jr., Appellant.
    Decided October 20, 2016
    
      APPEARANCES OF COUNSEL
    
      Albert F. Lawrence, Greenfield Center, for appellant.
    
      Alexander Lesyk, Special Prosecutor, Norwood, for respondent.
   OPINION OF THE COURT

Memorandum.

The order of the Appellate Division should be affirmed. Defendant was indicted by a grand jury, a sexual assault evidence kit was taken from the victim, and County Court’s order directing defendant to provide a DNA sample was authorized by statute (CPL 240.40 [2] [b] [v]). Accordingly, County Court did not err in granting the People’s application directing defendant to provide a buccal swab for testing.

Chief Judge DiFiore and Judges Pigott, Rivera, Abdus-Salaam, Stein, Fahey and Garcia concur.

On review of submissions pursuant to section 500.11 of the Rules of the Court of Appeals (22 NYCRR 500.11), order affirmed, in a memorandum.
