People v. Scott P.People v. Scott P.
—Appeal by the defendant, as limited by his motion, from a sentence of the County Court, Nassau County (LaPera, J.), imposed January 7, 2000, on the grounds that the sentence is both illegal and excessive.
Ordered that the sentence is affirmed.
As part of his plea agreement the defendant was advised that if he got into any trouble before the sentencing date the court would impose an enhanced sentence.
