Head Matter:
The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Ronald Nelson, Appellant.

Opinion:
Judgment unanimously affirmed. Memorandum: Although the trial court at sentencing improperly stated that anyone "convicted of a violent crime can only expect to receive the maximum", the sentence imposed is not excessive in view of the vicious nature of defendant's conduct and his history of criminal activity.
