Martin Geduldig, Garden City, N.Y., for appellant.
Madeline Singas, Acting District Attorney, Mineola, N.Y. (Judith R. Sternberg of counsel; Matthew C. Frankel on the brief), for respondent.
Opinion Appeal by the defendant, as limited by his brief, from a sentence of the Supreme Court, Nassau County (Robbins, J.), imposed April 18, 2013, upon his conviction of criminal contempt in the first degree (four counts) and stalking in the second degree, upon a jury verdict, on the ground that the sentence was excessive.
ORDERED that the sentence is affirmed.
The sentence imposed was not excessive (see People v. Suitte, 90 A.D.2d 80, 455 N.Y.S.2d 675 ). Under the circumstances, the sentencing court did not improvidently exercise its discretion by imposing consecutive sentences (see generally People v. Brown, 80 N.Y.2d 361, 590 N.Y.S.2d 422, 604 N.E.2d 1353 ).
DILLON, J.P., DICKERSON, COHEN and DUFFY, JJ., concur.
