The PEOPLE of the State of New York, Respondent,v.Rashawn CANNON, etc., Defendant–Appellant.
Steven Banks, The Legal Aid Society, New York (Cheryl Williams of counsel), for appellant.Cyrus R. Vance, Jr., District Attorney, New York (Alan Gadlin of counsel), for respondent.
Judgment of resentence, Supreme Court, New York County (Carol Berkman, J.), rendered December 16, 2009, as amended December 22, 2009, resentencing defendant to a term of 7 years, with 5 years' postrelease supervision, unanimously affirmed.
The resentencing proceeding imposing a term of postrelease supervision was neither barred by double jeopardy nor otherwise unlawful ( see People v. Lingle, 16 N.Y.3d 621, 926 N.Y.S.2d 4, 949 N.E.2d 952 [2011] ), and we do not find that term to be excessive.
