People v. Burns

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, First Department
Feb 4, 1992
180 A.D.2d 402 (N.Y. App. Div. 1992)

Opinion

February 4, 1992

Appeal from the Supreme Court, New York County (John Bradley, J.).


We are unpersuaded that the sentence imposed was unduly harsh or severe. Taking into account, "among other things, the crime charged, the particular circumstances of the individual before the court and the purpose of a penal sanction", we perceive no abuse of discretion warranting a reduction in sentence. (People v. Farrar, 52 N.Y.2d 302, 305.)

Concur — Murphy, P.J., Carro, Wallach and Asch, JJ.
