Judgment of resentence, Supreme Court, Bronx County (Judith Lieb, J.), rendered October 29, 2019, resentencing defendant to an aggregate term of 17 years, unanimously modified, as a matter of discretion in the interest of justice, to the extent of reducing the prison components of the sentences on the convictions of robbery in the first and second degrees and criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree to 12 years each, resulting in a new aggregate term of 12 years, with 5 years' postrelease supervision, and otherwise affirmed.

We find the sentence excessive to the extent indicated.
