Ordered that the order is affirmed.
An indictment is multiplicitous when two or more counts charge the same crime ( see People v Aarons, 296 AD2d 508; People v Nailor, 268 AD2d 695, 696). The County Court properly dismissed counts two and five of the indictment as they were multiplicitous to counts one and four of the indictment. The conduct alleged in the dismissed counts essentially referred "to the same mental state, the same act, the same course of conduct, and the same victim," respectively ( People v Senisi, 196 AD2d 376, 382).
The People's remaining contentions are not properly before this Court on this appeal.
