THE PEOPLE, ETC., respondent, v. ANDREW SAUER, appellant.

DECISION ORDER

ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant was promised concurrent sentences of imprisonment in return for his plea of guilty. At the sentencing, however, after reading the defendant's presentence report, which was very unfavorable, the court enhanced the sentence by adding $15,000 in fines which were not part of the negotiated plea agreement. Although the defendant would be entitled to an opportunity to withdraw his plea ( see People v. Fulton, 238 A.D.2d 439,440; People v. McKane, 227 A.D.2d 503), he clearly states in his brief that he wishes to retain his plea and instead requests only that his sentence be modified. We find no circumstances warranting a reduction of the sentence in the interest of justice ( see People v. Suitte, 90 A.D.2d 80).

SANTUCCI, J.P., FLORIO, SCHMIDT and RIVERA, JJ., concur.
