Lynn W.L. Fahey, New York, N.Y. (Melissa S. Horlick of counsel), for appellant. Charles J. Hynes, District Attorney, Brooklyn, N.Y. (Leonard Joblove, Jodi L. Mandel, and Marie–Claude P. Wrenn–Myers of counsel), for respondent.
Appeal by the defendant from a resentence of the Supreme Court, Kings County (D'Emic, J.), imposed October 13, 2010, which, upon his conviction of arson in the second degree, upon a jury verdict, imposed a period of postrelease supervision in addition to the determinate term of imprisonment previously imposed on January 2, 2002.
ORDERED that the resentence is affirmed.
Contrary to the defendant's contention, his resentencing to a term which included the statutorily required period of postrelease supervision did not subject him to double jeopardy or violate his right to due process of law, since, at the time he was resentenced, he had not yet completed the sentence of imprisonment originally imposed upon him ( see People v. Lingle, 16 N.Y.3d 621, 630, 632, 926 N.Y.S.2d 4, 949 N.E.2d 952;People v. Louis, 90 A.D.3d 1075, 935 N.Y.S.2d 516;People v. Mills, 90 A.D.3d 1076, 934 N.Y.S.2d 862;People v. Dawkins, 87 A.D.3d 550, 927 N.Y.S.2d 797;People v. Harris, 86 A.D.3d 543, 543–544, 926 N.Y.S.2d 319).
The defendant's remaining contention is without merit ( see People v. Lingle, 16 N.Y.3d at 635, 926 N.Y.S.2d 4, 949 N.E.2d 952;People v. Edwards, 89 A.D.3d 1034, 1035, 933 N.Y.S.2d 564).
