Opinion
September 22, 1994
Appeal from the County Court of St. Lawrence County (Nicandri, J.).
Defendant pleaded guilty to the crime of attempted burglary in the second degree in satisfaction of an indictment charging the more serious crime of burglary in the second degree. In addition, as a part of the plea bargain, the People agreed not to pursue three pending felony charges and a misdemeanor charge. Defendant was subsequently adjudicated a youthful offender and sentenced to a term of imprisonment of 1 1/3 to 4 years. Given the favorable plea bargain, we find no merit to defendant's contention that he was not afforded effective assistance of counsel. We also reject defendant's argument that his sentence is harsh and excessive.
Mercure, J.P., Crew III, White, Casey and Weiss, JJ., concur. Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
