The People of the State of New York, Respondent,
v
Koren Stanley, Appellant.

—[*1] Robert S. Dean, Center for Appellate Litigation, New York (Bruce D. Austern of counsel), for appellant.

Robert M. Morgenthau, District Attorney, New York (Sheryl Feldman of counsel), for respondent.

Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (James A. Yates, J.), rendered May 7, 1998, convicting defendant, upon his plea of guilty, of robbery in the first degree, and sentencing him to a term of 3 to 6 years, unanimously affirmed.

The court properly exercised its discretion in denying youthful offender treatment. In any event, since defendant is now serving an aggregate term of 50 years to life for subsequent convictions of murder and other crimes, it would serve no legitimate purpose to grant him youthful offender treatment on this case.
