PEOPLE v. CATO

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Fourth Department.
Apr 19, 1996

Judgment unanimously affirmed. Memorandum: We conclude that County Court properly determined that defendant violated the conditions of the sentencing commitment. Because defendant violated those conditions, the court was not bound by the sentencing commitment and could impose a greater sentence without providing defendant an opportunity to withdraw his plea ( see, People v. Thompson, 221 A.D.2d 1016). We further conclude that the enhanced sentence is not unduly harsh or severe.
