People v. Taylor

266 A.D.2d 114, 698 N.Y.S.2d 144, 1999 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 12074

Opinion

—Judgment, Supreme Court, Bronx County (Robert Cohen, J.), rendered August 22, 1997, convicting defendant, upon his plea of guilty, of criminal sale of a controlled substance in the fifth degree, and sentencing him, as a second felony offender, to a term of 3 to 6 years, unanimously affirmed.

We perceive no abuse of sentencing discretion, and find no other basis upon which to reduce defendant’s sentence. In order to cover a potential bail jumping charge, defendant specifically agreed, at sentencing, to a greater sentence than had been promised prior to his becoming a fugitive. Concur— Ellerin, P. J., Rosenberger, Tom, Andrias and Buckley, JJ.
