Head Matter:
The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Majestic, Also Known as Floyd Alston, Appellant.
[705 NYS2d 922]

Opinion:
—Judgment unanimously modified on the law and as modified affirmed in accordance with the following Memorandum: County Court erred in imposing a 5% surcharge on the restitution ordered for funds expended for the purchase of controlled substances from defendant (see, Penal Law § 60.27 [9]). We therefore modify the judgment by vacating that surcharge. Contrary to defendant's contention, the sentence is neither unduly harsh nor severe.
