DECISION & ORDER
Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Queens County (John B. Latella, J.), rendered October 22, 2018, convicting him of robbery in the second degree, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence.
ORDERED that the judgment is modified, on the law and as a matter of discretion in the interest of justice, by vacating the imposition of mandatory surcharges and fees; as so modified, the judgment is affirmed.
As consented to by the People, we modify the judgment by vacating the surcharges and fees imposed on the defendant at sentencing (see CPL 420.35[2-a]; People v Allen, 206 AD3d 669, 671; People v Hunter, 203 AD3d 752, 753).
