DAVID J. FARRUGIA, PUBLIC DEFENDER, LOCKPORT (JOSEPH G. FRAZIER OF COUNSEL), FOR DEFENDANT-APPELLANT.
NIAGARA COUNTY DISTRICT ATTORNEY’S OFFICE, LOCKPORT (THOMAS H. BRANDT OF COUNSEL), FOR RESPONDENT.

Appeal from a judgment of the Niagara County Court (Sara S. Farkas, J.), rendered March 27, 2013. The appeal was held by this Court by order entered April 29, 2016, decision was reserved and the matter was remitted to Niagara County Court for further proceedings (138 AD3d 1407). Now, upon reading and filing the stipulation of discontinuance signed by the attorneys for the parties on December 9, 2016, with attached affidavit sworn to on November 21, 2016 by defendant,
It is hereby ORDERED that said appeal is unanimously dismissed upon stipulation.

Entered: February 3, 2017 Frances E. Cafarell Clerk of the Court
#### The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Leon E. Hurd, Appellant.

[974 NYS2d 821]

Appeal from an order of the Genesee County Court (Robert C. Noonan, J.), entered February 14, 2012. The order determined that defendant is a level three risk pursuant to the Sex Offender Registration Act.

It is hereby ordered that the order so appealed from is unanimously affirmed without costs.

Memorandum: On appeal from an order determining that he is a level three risk pursuant to the Sex Offender Registration Act (Correction Law § 168 *et seq.),*defendant contends that County Court erred in denying his request for a downward departure from the presumptive risk level because one of his prior convictions upon which that risk level was calculated was for endangering the welfare of a child (Penal Law § 260.10) and did not involve events of a sexual nature. We reject that contention. A departure from the presumptive risk level is warranted where “there exists an aggravating or mitigating factor of a kind, or to a degree, that is otherwise not adequately taken into account by the guidelines” (Sex Offender Registration Act: Risk Assessment Guidelines and Commentary at 4 [2006]). Here, even assuming, arguendo, that the court erroneously treated defendant’s conviction of endangering the welfare of a child as a sex crime, we note that defendant’s score on the risk assessment instrument would still yield a presumptive level three risk, and defendant presented no other basis to support his request for a downward departure. Consequently, “defendant *1298failed to present clear and convincing evidence of special circumstances justifying a downward departure” from the presumptive risk level yielded by the risk assessment instrument *(People v McDaniel,*27 AD3d 1158, 1159 [2006], *lv denied*7 NY3d 703 [2006]).

GETZELL JOHNSON MURRELL, JR.,

Plaintiff-Appellant,

VERSUS

GARY W. MORGAN,

Defendant-Appellee.

_________________________

Appeal from the United States District Court

for the Eastern District of Texas

(6:95-CV-213)

_________________________

August 1, 1996

Before SMITH, DUHÉ, and BARKSDALE, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

This is a diversity case in which Getzell Murrell, Jr., sues

his former attorney for malpractice, for alleged inadequate

representation in criminal proceedings. Murrell pleaded guilty to

the offenses. In Texas, as in most jurisdictions, one cannot sue

his attorney under such circumstances unlessSSwhich has not
2

happened hereSShe has been legally exonerated of the charges. See,

e.g., Peeler v. Hughes & Luce, 868 S.W.2d 823 (Tex. App.SSDallas

1993), aff’d, 909 S.W.2d 494 (Tex. 1995).

The magistrate judge wrote a lucid report and recommendation,

filed September 25, 1995. It is correct, and the district court

entered judgment dismissing the appeal on the basis thereof. Based

on the plain authority cited in the report, Murrell has no goodfaith basis on which to appeal. The appeal, accordingly, is

DISMISSED as frivolous. See 5TH CIR. R. 42.2.
