PEOPLE v. SMITH

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, First Department.
Mar 10, 1998

The court properly enhanced its originally promised sentence on the basis of defendant's post-plea indictment for two rapes (People v. Outley, 80 N.Y.2d 702, 713), and the sentence imposed was not an abuse of discretion. The fact that subsequent to sentencing defendant was acquitted of both rapes does not retroactively invalidate the sentence and does not, under all the circumstances, warrant a reduction in the interest of justice.

Concur — Sullivan, J. P., Milonas, Rubin and Tom, JJ.
