[*1]The People of the State of New York, Respondent,

v

Melissa Goncalves, Defendant-Appellant.




Robert S. Dean, Center for Appellate Litigation, New York (Lisa A. Packard of counsel), for appellant.

Cyrus R. Vance, Jr., District Attorney, New York (Alan Gadlin of counsel), for respondent.



Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (Michael J. Obus, J.), rendered June 4, 2015, convicting defendant, upon her plea excessive sentence of guilty, of attempted criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree (Penal Law §§ 110/265.03[3], and imposing a split sentence of six months' incarceration and five years of probation, unanimously affirmed.

Although we do not find that defendant made a valid waiver of the right to appeal, we perceive no basis for reducing the sentence.

THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER

OF THE SUPREME COURT, APPELLATE DIVISION, FIRST DEPARTMENT.
