Original Note:
The current CN is incorrect. In NY: “‘Conviction’ means the entry of a plea of guilty to, or a verdict of guilty upon, an accusatory instrument other than a felony complaint, or to one or more counts of such instrument.” Sentencing is not required to be a convicted felon. https://codes.findlaw.com/ny/criminal-procedure-law/cpl-sect-1-20/
