[*1]The People of the State of New York, respondent,

v

Divine Allen, appellant.




Patricia Pazner, New York, NY (Lynn W. L. Fahey of counsel), for appellant.

Eric Gonzalez, District Attorney, Brooklyn, NY (Leonard Joblove and Michael Bierce of counsel; Darci Siegel on the memorandum), for respondent.



DECISION & ORDER

Appeal by the defendant, as limited by his motion, from a sentence of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Evelyn J. Laporte, J.), imposed May 13, 2021, upon his plea of guilty, on the ground that the sentence was excessive.

ORDERED that the sentence is affirmed.

Contrary to the defendant's contention, the portion of the sentence imposing a period of three years of probation plus 20 sessions with the Brooklyn Justice Initiatives program was not excessive (see People v Suitte , 90 AD2d 80).

CONNOLLY, J.P., RIVERA, MILLER and FORD, JJ., concur.

ENTER:

Maria T. Fasulo

Clerk of the Court
