THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, Respondent, v. ANDREA REA, Appellant.

MEMORANDUM AND ORDER

In satisfaction of two superior court informations and numerous other charges, defendant pleaded guilty to two counts of attempted robbery in the second degree and assault in the third degree stemming from her participation in the robbery of two stores where a codefendant displayed what appeared to be a weapon. She was sentenced in accordance with the negotiated plea agreement to two consecutive determinate prison terms of 2½ years for the robbery convictions and a concurrent one-year term for the assault conviction. Defendant appeals, contending that the sentence imposed was harsh or excessive. Inasmuch as defendant waived her right to appeal the conviction, her challenge to the harshness of the sentence imposed is not preserved for our review (see People v. Coleman, 281 A.D.2d 653, 653). Nevertheless, were we to consider the issue, we would find that, despite defendant's lack of a criminal record, the agreed-upon sentence was not harsh or excessive in view of the nature of the crimes (see People v. Buchanan, 236 A.D.2d 741, 742, lv denied 89 N.Y.2d 1032).

Mercure, J.P., Crew III, Peters, Spain and Kane, JJ., concur.

ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
