*1 SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK Appellate Division, Fourth Judicial Department 364

KA 11-02123

PRESENT: CENTRA, J.P., PERADOTTO, LINDLEY, AND DEJOSEPH, JJ. THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, RESPONDENT,

V MEMORANDUM AND ORDER DANIEL SIERRA, DEFENDANT-APPELLANT.

TIMOTHY P. DONAHER, PUBLIC DEFENDER, ROCHESTER (DAVID R. JUERGENS OF COUNSEL), FOR DEFENDANT-APPELLANT.

SANDRA DOORLEY, DISTRICT ATTORNEY, ROCHESTER (LEAH R. MERVINE OF COUNSEL), FOR RESPONDENT. Appeal from a judgment of the Monroe County Court (James J.

Piampiano, J.), rendered September 15, 2011. The judgment convicted defendant, upon his plea of guilty, of aggravated driving while intoxicated, a class D felony.

It is hereby ORDERED that the judgment so appealed from is unanimously affirmed.

Memorandum: Defendant appeals from a judgment convicting him upon his plea of guilty of felony aggravated driving while intoxicated (Vehicle and Traffic Law §§ 1192 [2-a] [a]; 1193 [1] [c] [ii]). Contrary to defendant’s contention, County Court properly sentenced him pursuant to Penal Law § 60.21 to a five-year period of probation to run consecutively to his indeterminate term of imprisonment ( see Vehicle and Traffic Law § 1193 [1] [c] [iii]; People v Segatol-Islami , 121 AD3d 1575, 1577; People v O’Brien , 111 AD3d 1028, 1029).

“Inasmuch as the plain language of the statutes requires a sentencing court to impose a period of probation or conditional discharge in addition to any fine or term of imprisonment for convictions pursuant to Vehicle and Traffic Law § 1192, the Legislature clearly intended this type of cumulative sentence for felony driving while intoxicated convictions” ( People v Brainard , 111 AD3d 1162, 1164).

Entered: March 27, 2015 Frances E. Cafarell

Clerk of the Court
