    The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Wayne James, Also Known as Carl Wayne James, Appellant.
    [951 NYS2d 676]
   The County Court properly assessed the defendant 10 points under risk factor 10 of the Sex Offender Registration Act Guidelines (see Sex Offender Registration Act: Risk Assessment Guidelines and Commentary [2006] [hereinafter SORA Guidelines]), based on the recency of a prior felony committed by the defendant. The People established, by clear and convincing evidence, consisting of the case summary and his presentence report, that the defendant had been released from prison to parole for a felony conviction in Maryland less than three years before he committed the sex offenses underlying the present SORA adjudication (see Correction Law § 168-n [3]; People v Mingo, 12 NY3d 563, 571-573 [2009]; People v Williams, 95 AD3d 1093 [2012], lv denied 19 NY3d 810 [2012]; People v Crandall, 90 AD3d 628, 629 [2011]; People v Maldonado, 79 AD3d 1804, 1804-1805 [2010]; People v Pendelton, 50 AD3d 659 [2008]; Matter of State of New York v J.A., 21 Misc 3d 806, 816 [2008]; People v Barnes, 6 Misc 3d 469, 471 [2004]; cf.
