Opinion

May 16, 1991

Appeal from the County Court of Schenectady County (Harrigan, J.).


The prison sentence defendant received of 4 to 8 years was in accordance with the plea-bargain agreement and his plea was in full satisfaction of a six-count indictment. Furthermore, given that the conviction was for an armed class B violent felony, defendant could have received a sentence of 12 1/2 to 25 years (Penal Law § 70.02, [4]; CPL 1.20). Under these circumstances, we find no abuse of discretion in the sentence imposed by County Court (see, People v Mackey, 136 A.D.2d 780, lv denied 71 N.Y.2d 899).

Judgment affirmed. Mahoney, P.J., Casey, Weiss, Yesawich, Jr., and Harvey, JJ., concur.
