Opinion:
Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (Ruth Pickholz, J.), rendered January 8, 2015, convicting defendant, upon his plea of guilty, of assault in the first degree, and sentencing him, as a second violent felony offender, to a term of 20 years, unanimously modified, as a matter of discretion in the interest of justice, to the extent of reducing the sentence to a term of 16 years, with five years' postrelease supervision, and otherwise affirmed.
We find the sentence excessive to the extent indicated.
