Appeal from the Supreme Court, New York County (Ira Beal, J.).
We are unpersuaded that the sentences imposed, or their consecutive nature, were unduly harsh or excessive. Taking into account, "among other things, the crime charged, the particular circumstances of the individual before the court and the purpose of a penal sanction", we perceive no abuse of discretion warranting a reduction in sentences. (People v. Farrar, 52 N.Y.2d 302, 305.)
Further, defendant was sentenced in accordance with his plea bargain and, "[h]aving received the benefit of his bargain, defendant should be bound by its terms." (People v. Felman, 141 A.D.2d 889, 890, lv denied 72 N.Y.2d 918.)
