People v. Bowman

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Third Department
Dec 13, 1990
168 A.D.2d 754 (N.Y. App. Div. 1990)

Opinion

December 13, 1990

Appeal from the County Court of Sullivan County (Hanofee, J.).


On this appeal defendant argues only that the sentence he received upon his plea of guilty of the crime of criminal sale of a controlled substance in the third degree was harsh and excessive. However, he entered his plea knowing that he would receive the sentence ultimately imposed by County Court. Furthermore, the plea was in full satisfaction of a four-count indictment. Under these circumstances, we find no abuse of discretion by the court in sentencing defendant to a prison term of 1 1/2 to 4 1/2 years (see, People v. Mackey, 136 A.D.2d 780, lv. denied 71 N.Y.2d 899).

Judgment affirmed. Mahoney, P.J., Kane, Casey, Weiss and Mercure, JJ., concur.
