New York Laws
Article 450 - Appeals--in What Cases Authorized and to What Courts Taken
450.60 - Appeal to Intermediate Appellate Court; to What Court Taken.

The particular intermediate appellate courts to which appeals
authorized by sections 450.10 and 450.20 must be taken are as follows:

1. An appeal from a judgment, sentence or order of the supreme court
must be taken to the appellate division of the department in which such
judgment, sentence or order was entered.

2. An appeal from a judgment, sentence or order of a county court
must be taken to the appellate division of the department in which such
judgment, sentence or order was entered.

3. An appeal from a judgment, sentence or order of a local criminal
court located outside of New York City must, except as otherwise
provided in this subdivision, be taken to the county court of the county
in which such judgment, sentence or order was entered.

If the appellate division of the second, third or fourth department
has established an appellate term of the supreme court for its
department, it may direct that appeals from such judgments, sentences
and orders of such local criminal courts, or of particular
classifications of such local criminal courts, be taken to such
appellate term of the supreme court instead of to the county court; and
in such case such an appeal must be so taken.

4. An appeal from a judgment, sentence or order of the New York City
criminal court must be taken, if such judgment, sentence or order was
entered at a term of such court held in New York or Bronx county, to the
appellate division of the first department, and, if entered at a term of
such court held in Kings, Queens or Richmond county, to the appellate
division of the second department; except that if the appellate division
of either such department has established an appellate term of the
supreme court for its department, it may direct that all such appeals be
taken thereto; and in such case such an appeal must be so taken.
