Appeal from a judgment of the County Court of Broome County (Smith, J.), rendered March 10, 2005, which revoked defendant’s probation and imposed a sentence of imprisonment.
Defendant was convicted in May 2001 of criminal possession of a controlled substance in the fifth degree and sentenced to
Defendant’s sole contention on appeal is that his sentence is harsh and excessive. Here, the record reveals that defendant received the benefit of pleading to a reduced charge on the original indictment, which exposed him to a shorter prison term, and that he thereafter repeatedly failed to abide by the reasonable conditions of his probation. Given these facts, as well as the serious nature of defendant’s conduct leading to the violation of probation, we find no abuse of discretion or extraordinary circumstances warranting a reduction of the sentence in the interest of justice (see People v Buchner, 30 AD3d 912, 913 [2006]; People v Spitzley, 303 AD2d 837, 838 [2003], lv denied 100 NY2d 599 [2003]).
Crew III, J.P., Mugglin, Rose, Lahtinen and Kane, JJ., concur. Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
