DECISION ORDER
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
The defendant's contention that he was denied the effective assistance of counsel is without merit (see People v. Benevento, 91 N.Y.2d 708; People v. Satterfield, 66 N.Y.2d 796; People v. Baldi, 54 N.Y.2d 137; People v. Wicker, 229 A.D.2d 602).
The sentence imposed was not excessive (see People v. Suitte, 90 A.D.2d 80).
KRAUSMAN, J.P., SCHMIDT, CRANE and RIVERA, JJ., concur.
