Janet E. Sabel, The Legal Aid Society, New York (Samuel Claflin of counsel), for appellant.

Alvin L. Bragg, Jr., District Attorney, New York (Nathan Shi of counsel), for respondent.

Appeal from judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (Laura A. Ward, J.), rendered April 8, 2019, convicting defendant, upon his plea of guilty, of criminal possession of a controlled substance in the fifth degree, and sentencing him, as a second felony drug offender previously convicted of a violent felony offense, to a term of 2 ½ years, unanimously dismissed as moot.

This appeal, claiming excessiveness of sentence, is moot because defendant has completed all components of his sentence.
