People v. Rodriguez
Opinion of the Court
Order, Supreme
The court properly exercised its discretion in denying a downward departure from defendant’s presumptive risk level (see People v Guaman, 8 AD3d 545 [2004]). Defendant’s achievements and his good behavior after his release from prison were outweighed by the seriousness of the underlying sex crime and the fact that his point score was nearly enough for a level three adjudication. Concur—Lippman, P.J., Buckley, Gonzalez and Sweeny, JJ.
