Ind No. 3301/11 Appeal No. 14453 Case No. 2020-03133
v
Pedro Flores, Defendant-Appellant.
Robert S. Dean, Center for Appellate Litigation, New York (Carola M. Beeney of counsel), for appellant.
Cyrus R. Vance, Jr., District Attorney, New York (Rebecca Hausner of counsel), for respondent.
Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (Steven Stasinger, J.), rendered April 5, 2019, convicting defendant, upon his plea of guilty, of manslaughter in the first degree, and sentencing him to a term of 15 years, unanimously modified, as a matter of discretion in the interest of justice, to the extent of reducing the prison component of the sentence to a term of 11 years, and otherwise affirmed.
We find the sentence excessive to the extent indicated. The record does not establish a valid appeal waiver.
THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE SUPREME COURT, APPELLATE DIVISION, FIRST DEPARTMENT.
