Matthew W. Brissenden, Garden City, NY, for appellant.

Anne T. Donnelly, District Attorney, Mineola, NY (Cristin N. Connell of counsel; Matthew C. Frankel on the brief), for respondent.

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Nassau County (Philippe Solages, Jr., J.), rendered April 19, 2023, convicting him of aggravated unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle in the first degree, driving while intoxicated in violation of Vehicle and Traffic Law § 1192 (2), driving while intoxicated in violation of Vehicle and Traffic Law § 1192 (3), and leaving the scene of an incident without reporting, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The sentence imposed was not excessive (see People v Suitte, 90 AD2d 80 [1982]).

The People's remaining contention is without merit. Miller, J.P., Christopher, Landicino and Hom, JJ., concur.
