Opinion
July 3, 1995
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Queens County (Orgera, J.).
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
As the Court of Appeals has indicated, the trial court neither exceeded its authority nor placed the defendant on illegal "interim probation" by postponing the defendant's sentence after her plea of guilty and placing her with a private drug treatment program ( see, People v. Smith, 85 N.Y.2d 919, supra; see also, People v. Avery, 85 N.Y.2d 503).
Upon our review of the facts, we reject the defendant's additional contention that the sentence imposed was excessive ( see, People v. Suitte, 90 A.D.2d 80). No other questions of fact have been raised or considered. Bracken, J.P., Miller, Copertino, Santucci and Altman, JJ., concur.
