People v. Waring

Judgments, Supreme Court, Bronx County (Troy K. Webber, J.), rendered on September 26, 2012, convicting defendant, upon his pleas of guilty, of robbery in the third degree and criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree, and sentencing him to an aggregate term of five years, unanimously affirmed.

Although we do not find that defendant made a valid waiver of the right to appeal, we perceive no basis for reducing the sentence.

Defendant’s challenge to imposition of the mandatory surcharge is premature; it should be raised in the sentencing court by a motion for resentencing at the end of defendant’s incarceration, and not on direct appeal (People v Bradley, 249 AD2d 103 [1st Dept 1998], lv denied 92 NY2d 923 [1998]).
