DECISION & ORDER ON MOTION
Motion by the defendant for a change of venue of the trial of Richmond County Indictment No. 14/2021 from Richmond County to another county.
Upon the papers filed in support of the motion and the papers filed in opposition thereto, it is
ORDERED that the motion is denied without prejudice to renew upon a demonstration that there has arisen during voir dire proceedings reasonable cause to believe that a fair and impartial trial cannot be had in Richmond County (see CPL 230.20[2]; People v Boudin, 97 A.D.2d 84; People v Boudin, 95 A.D.2d 463).
MASTRO, J.P., WOOTEN, ZAYAS and DOWLING, JJ., concur.
