Opinion
September 26, 1991
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Broome County (Monserrate, J.).
We reject defendant's contention that the prison sentence he received as a second felony offender of 2 1/2 to 5 years was harsh or excessive. The sentence was well within the statutory guidelines and was in accordance with the plea bargain (see, People v. Mackey, 136 A.D.2d 780, lv denied 71 N.Y.2d 899). Given defendant's extensive criminal background and the fact that the plea was to a reduced charge, we find no basis for disturbing the sentence imposed (see, People v. Dean, 155 A.D.2d 774, lv denied 75 N.Y.2d 812).
Mahoney, P.J., Casey, Yesawich Jr. and Mercure, JJ., concur. Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
