PEOPLE v. COHEN
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department.
Dec 4, 1995
Ordered that the appeal is dismissed.
Penal Law § 60.01 (2)(d) expressly states, in relevant part, that a sentencing court may impose a sentence of imprisonment to be served concurrently with, and as "a condition of", a term of probation. Inasmuch as the sentence of imprisonment imposed here constituted a condition of probation, the court possessed the authority to modify that condition (CPL 410.20; Penal Law § 65.00). Moreover, since the People do not possess the right to appeal from an order lawfully modifying a condition of probation pursuant to CPL 410.20, the appeal must be dismissed (see, CPL 450.20, 450.30 Crim. Proc. [2], [3]). Bracken, J.P., Rosenblatt, Miller and Krausman, JJ., concur.
