People v. Copeland, 276 A.D.2d 709, 715 N.Y.S.2d 641, 2000 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 10865 (N.Y. Ct. App. 2000).

Opinion

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the County Court, Orange County (Berry, J.), rendered October 30, 1997, convicting him of robbery in the second degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

We reject the defendant’s contention that he was penalized for exercising his right to a jury trial (see, People v Pena, 50 NY2d 400, cert denied 449 US 1087; People v Goolsby, 213 AD2d 722).

The County Court considered the appropriate factors in sentencing the defendant, and the sentence imposed was not excessive (see, People v Suitte, 90 AD2d 80). Bracken, J. P., Santucci, Altman and Florio, JJ., concur.
