Head Matter:
The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Michael Guarasci, Appellant.

Opinion:
Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the County Court, Orange County (Paño Z. Patsalos, J.), rendered October 22, 1990, convicting him of criminal possession of a controlled substance in the second degree, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence.
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
The defendant has failed to demonstrate that there exists a significant possibility that an actual conflict of interest resulted from the joint representation of the defendant and the codefendant (see, People v Recupero, 73 NY2d 877).
Inasmuch as the defendant pleaded guilty with the understanding that he would receive the sentence which was there after actually imposed, he has no basis to now complain that his sentence was excessive (see, People v Kazepis, 101 AD2d 816).
We have reviewed the defendant's remaining contentions and conclude that they are without merit. Bracken, J. P., Lawrence, Miller, Copertino and Santucci, JJ., concur.
