Robert M. O'Leary, Public Defender, Binghamton, for appellant.
Gerald F. Mollen, District Attorney (Robert A. Sharpe of counsel), Binghamton, for respondent.
Before: Cardona, P.J., Mercure, Mugglin, Rose and Lahtinen, JJ.
MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
Defendant pleaded guilty to criminal possession of a weapon in the third degree and was sentenced to time already served and five years' probation. Thereafter, defendant failed to stay in contact with his probation officer, left the State without permission and was charged with additional misdemeanors. A violation petition was filed against him. After a hearing, defendant admitted to violating the terms of his probation and was sentenced to an indeterminate term of imprisonment of 2 to 4 years. Although defendant challenges this sentence as being unduly harsh and excessive, our review of the record reveals no abuse of discretion on the part of County Court, nor do we find the existence of extraordinary circumstances warranting our intervention (see, People v. Corpin, 269 A.D.2d 622,lv denied 95 N.Y.2d 795).
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
