Failure to Cooperate with Probation Department Is Valid Reason for Enhanced Sentence

The Second Department determined defendant’s failure to cooperate with the probation department in violation of his plea agreement was a valid ground for an enhanced sentence:

The condition of the defendant’s plea that he cooperate with the probation department was explicit and objective, and was acknowledged, understood, and accepted by the defendant as part of the plea agreement …. The defendant’s violation of that condition, by refusing to be interviewed by the probation officer, allowed the Supreme Court to impose the enhanced sentence.  People v Patterson, 2013 NY Slip Op 03113, 5-1-18
