Opinion
July 11, 1994
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Queens County (O'Dwyer, J.).
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
We reject the defendant's contention that his sentence was pronounced after an "unreasonable delay" in violation of CPL 380.30 (1). The length of the delay was not protracted and the People have offered a plausible reason to explain the delay (see generally, People v. Drake, 61 N.Y.2d 359). Thompson, J.P., Rosenblatt, Ritter, Friedmann and Krausman, JJ., concur.
