People v. Leonor, 247 A.D.2d 282, 668 N.Y.S.2d 454, 1998 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 1548 (N.Y. Ct. App. 1998).

Opinion

Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (Arlene Silverman, J.), rendered August 13, 1996, convicting defendant, upon his plea of guilty, of criminal possession of a controlled substance in the first degree, and sentencing him to a term of 3 years to life, unanimously modified, on the law, to the extent of vacating the sentence and substituting a sentence of 15 years to life, and otherwise affirmed.

Contrary to the determination of the motion court, imposition of the minimum statutory sentence for an A-l felony upon this defendant, who violated the terms of a cooperation agreement entered into at the plea allocution, is not unconstitutional (see, People v Thompson, 83 NY2d 477, 480; People v Broadie, 37 NY2d 100, cert denied 423 US 950).

Concur — Sullivan, J. P., Wallach, Rubin, Williams and Tom, JJ.
