Kenneth P. Thompson, District Attorney, Brooklyn, N.Y. (Leonard Joblove and Jodi Mandel of counsel; Robert Ho on the memorandum), for respondent.
Opinion Appeal by the defendant, as limited by his motion, from a sentence of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Holdman, J.), imposed June 29, 2006, on the ground that the sentence was excessive.
ORDERED that appeal is dismissed as academic.
The defendant's contention that the sentence imposed was excessive has been rendered academic (see People v. Nicholson, 31 A.D.3d 468, 469, 817 N.Y.S.2d 638 ; People v. Anderson, 168 A.D.2d 624, 624, 563 N.Y.S.2d 463 ), as the defendant has fully served his sentence (see People v. Nicholson, 31 A.D.3d at 469, 817 N.Y.S.2d 638 ; People v. Anderson, 168 A.D.2d at 624, 563 N.Y.S.2d 463 ). Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal.
ENG, P.J., SKELOS, LEVENTHAL, ROMAN and DUFFY, JJ., concur.
