    The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Ernesto Lopez, Appellant.
   Judgment of the Supreme Court, New York County (Frederic S. Berman, J.), rendered on September 8, 1987, convicting defendant, upon his plea of guilty, of assault in the first degree and sentencing him to a term of imprisonment of from 3Vá to 10 years, unanimously affirmed.

Taking into account, "among other things, the crime charged, the particular circumstances of the individual before the court and the purpose of a penal sanction”, we perceive no abuse of discretion warranting a reduction in sentence. (People v Farrar, 52 NY2d 302, 305.)

Further, defendant was sentenced in accordance with his plea bargain and within statutory guidelines. "Having received the benefit of his bargain, defendant should be bound by its terms.” (People v Felman, 141 AD2d 889, 890, lv denied 72 NY2d 918.) Concur—Murphy, P. J., Sullivan, Milonas, Rosenberger and Asch, JJ.
