Head Matter:
The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Teri W., Appellant.
[37 NYS3d 890]

Opinion:
Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (Rena K. Uviller, J.), rendered June 6, 2012, convicting defendant, upon her plea of guilty, of sexual abuse in the first degree, adjudicating her a youthful offender and sentencing her to a term of 10 years' probation, unanimously affirmed.
Although the court adjudicated defendant a youthful offender, it lawfully imposed a 10-year term of probation rather than a five-year term (see People v Gray, 2 AD3d 275, 275 [1st Dept 2003], lv denied 1 NY3d 628 [2004]). We decline to revisit our holding in Gray.
Although we do not find that defendant made a valid waiver of her right to appeal, we perceive no basis for reducing the sentence.
