People v. Blakeslee

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Third Department
May 20, 1993
193 A.D.2d 958 (N.Y. App. Div. 1993)

Opinion

May 20, 1993

Appeal from the County Court of Greene County (Fromer, J.).


Defendant's only contention on this appeal is that the sentence of 2 1/3 to 7 years' imprisonment that he received upon his plea of guilty is harsh and excessive. Although defendant's sentence was the harshest possible for the crime to which he pleaded guilty, he was allowed to plead to a reduced charge of assault in the second degree in full satisfaction of a three-count indictment that charged the more serious crimes of attempted murder in the second degree and two counts of assault in the first degree. Given this advantageous plea bargain, we find no reason to disturb the sentence imposed by County Court (see, People v Mackey, 136 A.D.2d 780, lv denied 71 N.Y.2d 899).

Mikoll, J.P., Yesawich Jr., Mercure, Crew III and Harvey, JJ., concur. Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
