| The People of the State of New York,
Respondent, v Ruben Garcia, Appellant. |
Robert S. Dean, Center for Appellate Litigation, New York (Molly Ryan of counsel), for appellant.
Cyrus R. Vance, Jr., District Attorney, New York (Manu K. Balachandran of counsel), for respondent.
Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (Gregory Carro, J.), rendered February
20, 2013, convicting defendant, upon his plea of guilty, of two counts of criminal
possession of a weapon in the third degree, and sentencing him, as a second felony
offender, to consecutive terms of 3
As the People concede, defendant possessed two handguns through a single act, and is thus entitled to concurrent sentences (see People v Salazar, 290 AD2d 256 [1st Dept 2002], lv denied 97 NY2d 760 [2002]).
We perceive no basis for any further modification of the sentences. Concur—Mazzarelli, J.P., Sweeny, Andrias, Saxe and Richter, JJ.
