DECISION & ORDER

Appeal by the defendant from a resentence of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Gary, J.), imposed June 11, 2013, pursuant to the Drug Law Reform Act of 2004 (L 2004, ch 738, § 23), upon his conviction of criminal sale of a controlled substance in the first degree, upon a jury verdict.

ORDERED that the resentence is affirmed.

Contrary to the defendant's contention, the resentence imposed by the Supreme Court was not excessive (see People v Leyba, 97 AD3d 765; People v Gouveia, 88 AD3d 814, 816; People v Sevencan, 58 AD3d 761).

LEVENTHAL, J.P., CHAMBERS, HALL and DUFFY, JJ., concur.
