Section 23 of the Drug Law Reform Act (L 2004, ch 738) provides, in pertinent part, that the court should grant a resentencing application "unless substantial justice dictates that the application should be denied." We find that the court properly recognized the degree of discretion it possessed ( compare e.g. People v Arana, 32 AD3d 305), and providently exercised it. "The Legislature could have made resentencing automatic, or it could have required a finding of extraordinary circumstances in order to deny resentencing, but it did not do either" ( People v Gonzalez, 29 AD3d 400, lv denied 7 NY3d 867). Defendant, who was convicted of three counts of first-degree drug possession, was the head of a multimillion dollar international drug organization, and his evidence of rehabilitation while incarcerated was insignificant in light of the magnitude of his crimes. We have considered and rejected defendant's remaining arguments.
