Opinion
August 29, 1991
Appeal from the County Court of Sullivan County (Hanofee, J.).
On this appeal, the only issue raised by defendant is whether the concurrent prison sentences he received of 4 to 12 years upon his plea of guilty were harsh and excessive. In rejecting his claim, we note that at the time of his plea no promises were made other than that the sentences imposed would be made to run concurrently. The sentences were well within the statutory guidelines and the plea was in full satisfaction of a five-count indictment. Under these circumstances, and given the nature of the crime involved, we find no abuse of discretion by County Court in the sentences it imposed (see, People v Honsinger, 162 A.D.2d 877, lv denied 76 N.Y.2d 894; People v Dean, 155 A.D.2d 774, lv denied 75 N.Y.2d 812).
Casey, J.P., Weiss, Yesawich Jr., Mercure and Harvey, JJ., concur. Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
