THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, Respondent, v. KEVIN DUNN, Also Known as KEVIN PATTERSON, Appellant.

Judgment unanimously affirmed. Memorandum: We find no abuse of discretion in the trial court's ruling under People v Sandoval ( 34 N.Y.2d 371) that permitted the prosecutor to inquire of defendant, if he were to take the stand, whether he had previously been convicted of four misdemeanors and one felony, but prohibited inquiry into the nature of the convictions and their underlying facts (see, People v Bukovsky, 183 A.D.2d 942, lv denied 80 N.Y.2d 927; see also, People v Sargent, 194 A.D.2d 865). We reject the contention that defendant's sentence is unduly harsh or excessive.

We have reviewed defendant's remaining contention and find it to be without merit.
