Opinion
December 13, 1990
Appeal from the County Court of Chemung County (Danaher, Jr., J.).
Defendant's only contention on appeal is that the sentence he received for violating his probation was harsh and excessive in light of his sincere desire to overcome his alcohol problem and his rehabilitative needs in this regard. Given defendant's criminal record, his history of being a serious probation risk and his failure to cooperate in an alcohol treatment program, we find that County Court did not abuse its discretion in imposing a sentence of 1 to 3 years' imprisonment (see, People v. Smith, 136 A.D.2d 867, lv. denied 71 N.Y.2d 1033).
Judgment affirmed. Casey, J.P., Mikoll, Yesawich, Jr., Levine and Harvey, JJ., concur.
