THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, Respondent, v. ANTHONY SMITH, Appellant.

Upon pleading guilty, defendant, a first time offender, was conditionally promised a sentence of probation as a youthful offender if he obtained a full time job, stayed out of trouble, and appeared for sentencing. The court informed the defendant that should he not fulfill these conditions he would be incarcerated. Prior to sentencing the defendant was twice arrested for separate violent felonies: attempted murder in the second degree and robbery in the first degree. He later pleaded guilty to robbery in the first degree. The court imposed a sentence within the parameters of Penal Law § 70.00. In these circumstances, imposition of the maximum term was not an abuse of discretion (People v Farrar, 52 N.Y.2d 302, 305).

Concur — Murphy, P.J., Rosenberger, Kassal and Rubin, JJ.
