[*1]8246 The People of the State of New York, Respondent,

v

Lawrence Perkins, Defendant-Appellant.




Steven Banks, The Legal Aid Society, New York (Richard
Joselson of counsel), for appellant.
Cyrus R. Vance, Jr., District Attorney, New York (Alan Gadlin
of counsel), for respondent.

Judgment of resentence, Supreme Court, New York County (Daniel FitzGerald, J.), rendered May 1, 2009, resentencing defendant to a term of 12 years, with five years' postrelease supervision, unanimously affirmed.

The resentencing proceeding imposing a term of postrelease supervision was neither barred by double jeopardy nor otherwise unlawful (see People v Lingle, 16 NY3d 621 [2011]). We have no
authority to revisit defendant's prison sentence on this appeal (see id. at 635).

THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER
OF THE SUPREME COURT, APPELLATE DIVISION, FIRST DEPARTMENT.

ENTERED: OCTOBER 9, 2012

CLERK
