PEOPLE v. RECCHIA (2023)

DECISION & ORDER

Appeals by the defendant, as limited by his motion, from two sentences of the County Court, Dutchess County (Jessica Z. Segal, J.), both imposed February 22, 2022, sentencing him, under Superior Court Information No. 162/19, to an indeterminate term of imprisonment of 21/313 to 7 years upon his conviction of burglary in the third degree and a definite term of imprisonment of 364 days upon his conviction of petit larceny, and, under Superior Court Information No. 163/19, to an indeterminate term of imprisonment of 21/313 to 7 years upon his conviction of burglary in the third degree and a definite term of imprisonment of 364 days upon his conviction of criminal mischief in the fourth degree, with the terms of imprisonment imposed under Superior Court Information No. 163/19 to run consecutively to the terms of imprisonment imposed under Superior Court Information No. 162/19, upon his pleas of guilty, on the ground that the sentences were excessive.

ORDERED that the sentences are modified, as a matter of discretion in the interest of justice, by providing that the terms of imprisonment imposed under Superior Court Information No. 163/19 shall run concurrently with the terms of imprisonment imposed under Superior Court Information No. 162/19;  as so modified, the sentences are affirmed.

The sentences imposed were excessive to the extent indicated herein (see People v. Williams, 211 AD3d 1055;  People v. Morrison, 201 AD3d 953;  People v. Suitte, 90 A.D.2d 80).
