People v. Turner

167 A.D.2d 188, 562 N.Y.S.2d 413, 1990 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 13514

Opinion

Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (Harold Rothwax, J.), rendered on December 15, 1983, convicting defendant, upon her plea of guilty, of robbery in the first degree and sentencing her to an indeterminate term of imprisonment of 10 to 20 years, is unanimously affirmed.

We are unpersuaded that the sentence imposed was unduly harsh or severe. Taking into account, "among other things, the crime charged, the particular circumstances of the individual before the court and the purpose of a penal sanction”, we perceive no abuse of discretion warranting a reduction in sentence. (People v Farrar, 52 NY2d 302, 305.)

Further, defendant was sentenced in accordance with her plea bargain and within statutory guidelines. "Having received the benefit of [her] bargain, defendant should be bound by its terms.” (People v Felman, 141 AD2d 889, 890, lv denied 72 NY2d 918.) Concur—Ross, J. P., Rosenberger, Asch, Kassal and Wallach, JJ.
