v
Craig Coates, Defendant-Appellant.
Robert S. Dean, Center for Appellate Litigation, New York (Jody Ratner of counsel), for appellant.
Darcel D. Clark, District Attorney, Bronx (Felicia A. Yancey of counsel), for respondent.
Judgment, Supreme Court, Bronx County (John Moore, J. at plea; Nicholas Iacovetta, J. at sentencing), rendered June 19, 2018, convicting defendant of criminal sale of a controlled substance in the third degree, and sentencing him to a term of two years, unanimously modified, as a matter of discretion in the interest of justice, to the extent of amending the sentence and commitment sheet in accordance with this decision, and otherwise affirmed.
Regardless of whether defendant made a valid waiver of the right to appeal, we perceive no basis for reducing the sentence. The parties agree that the Drug Type section of the sentence and commitment sheet should be amended to reflect that the correct drug is cocaine.
