DECISION & ORDER
Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Deborah Stevens Modica, J.), rendered May 30, 2017, convicting him of assault in the first degree and endangering the welfare of a child, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence. The appeal brings up for review an order of protection issued at the time of sentencing.
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
Contrary to the defendant's contention, the Supreme Court had the authority to issue an order of protection in favor of an individual who witnessed the offense for which the defendant was convicted (see CPL 530.13[4][a]).
The sentence imposed was not excessive (see People v Suitte, 90 A.D.2d 80).
LASALLE, P.J., CHAMBERS, MILLER, DUFFY and WOOTEN, JJ., concur.
