DECISION & ORDER
Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Dineen Riviezzo, J.), rendered January 16, 2018, convicting him of assault in the second degree, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence.
ORDERED that the judgment is modified, on the law and as a matter of discretion in the interest of justice, by vacating the imposition of mandatory surcharges and fees; as so modified, the judgment is affirmed.
As consented to by the People, we modify the judgment by vacating the surcharges and fees imposed on the defendant at sentencing (see CPL 420.35[2-a]; People v Douglas, 205 A.D.3d 732; People v Reeves, 203 A.D.3d 1181; People v Santillan, 200 A.D.3d 1074; People v Sevaughn G., 199 A.D.3d 936, 937; People v Dyshawn B., 196 A.D.3d 638).
IANNACCI, J.P., ZAYAS, GENOVESI and FORD, JJ., concur.
