Memorandum.
Judgment of conviction unanimously reversed on the law and matter remanded to the court below for further proceedings on the original felony complaint.
Even though the defendant expressly consented to an oral reduction of the felony complaint, such a reduction was invalid and the defect nonwaivable (see, People v Jones, 151 Misc 2d 582, 584, lv denied sub nom. People v Mayfield, 79 NY2d 921).
