THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, Respondent, v. DERRICK R. FULTON, Appellant.

It is hereby ordered that the judgment so appealed from is unanimously affirmed.

Memorandum: Defendant appeals from a judgment convicting him upon a jury verdict of two counts each of burglary in the first degree (Penal Law § 140.30, [4]) and robbery in the second degree (§ 160.10 [1], [2] [a]) and one count of robbery in the first degree (§ 160.15 [4]). By failing to object to County Court's ultimate Sandoval ruling, defendant failed to preserve for our review his contention that the ruling constitutes an abuse of discretion ( see People v Caswell, 49 AD3d 1257, lv denied 11 NY3d 735). We decline to exercise our power to review that contention as a matter of discretion in the interest of justice ( see CPL 470.15 [a]). Contrary to defendant's further contention, the court properly ordered the sentence imposed for robbery in the first degree to run consecutively to the sentences imposed on the two counts of burglary in the first degree ( see People v Yong Yun Lee, 92 NY2d 987, 989; People v Sanchez, 31 AD3d 1218, lv denied 7 NY3d 870). The sentence is not unduly harsh or severe.
