DECISION & ORDER
Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the County Court, Dutchess County (Peter M. Forman, J.), rendered March 7, 2019, convicting him of robbery in the second degree, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence.
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
Contrary to the defendant's contention, the County Court's remarks at sentencing were not indicative of bias or reliance on personal opinion in imposing sentence (see People v. Ross, 172 A.D.3d 1243, 1244, 98 N.Y.S.3d 864 ; People v. Jin Zheng, 127 A.D.3d 890, 891, 6 N.Y.S.3d 288 ).
The sentence imposed was not excessive (see People v. Suitte, 90 A.D.2d 80, 455 N.Y.S.2d 675 ).
DUFFY, J.P., IANNACCI, RIVERA and WOOTEN, JJ., concur.
