Original Note:
NY state law, one does not become a felon until sentencing is performed. This is due to the ability of the judge to ignore the juries finding and acquit/dismiss the case. Upon final sentencing then guilt is entered. This is the same for a guilty/not guilty plea. https://www.ithacadwi.com/breaking-down-the-timeline-of-a-criminal-case-in-ny-felony
