Ordered that the sentence is modified, as a matter of discretion in the interest of justice, by reducing it to a determinate term of one year’s imprisonment; as so modified the sentence is affirmed.

Under the unusual circumstances of this case, the sentence was excessive to the extent indicated. Mollen, P. J., Brown, Kunzeman and Balletta, JJ., concur.
