v
Kimara Pluviose, Appellant.

Todd G. Monahan, Little Falls, for defendant-appellant.

Sandra Doorley, District Attorney, Rochester (Merideth H. Smith of counsel), for respondent.

Appeal from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Monroe County (Victoria M. Argento, J.), rendered January 12, 2023. The judgment convicted defendant upon her plea of guilty of burglary in the first degree.

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

Present—Lindley, J.P., Montour, Ogden, Greenwood and Keane, JJ.
