People v. Dolbow

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Third Department
Feb 28, 1991
170 A.D.2d 892 (N.Y. App. Div. 1991)

Opinion

February 28, 1991

Appeal from the County Court of Broome County (Mathews, J.).


Upon her plea of guilty to criminal sale of a controlled substance in the third degree, defendant was sentenced to a prison term of 2 to 6 years. Defendant's only contention on appeal is that the sentence is harsh and excessive and should be reduced in the interest of justice to 1 to 3 years' imprisonment. Defendant, who was represented by competent counsel, pleaded guilty knowing that she would receive the sentence ultimately imposed by County Court. In light of this and the fact that her 13-year-old son was one of the parties to whom she supplied cocaine, we do not find that her sentence was harsh or excessive (see, People v Salgado, 156 A.D.2d 492, lv denied 75 N.Y.2d 817; People v Wolmart, 140 A.D.2d 733, lv denied 72 N.Y.2d 926).

Judgment affirmed. Mahoney, P.J., Mikoll, Yesawich, Jr., Crew III, and Harvey, JJ., concur.
