Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Firetog, J.),rendered April 4, 2007, convicting him of burglary in the second degree, upon his plea of guilty,and imposing sentence. Justice Angiolillo has been substituted for Justice Chambers (see22 NYCRR 670.1 [c]).

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The court's inquiry regarding the circumstances concerning the defendant's discharge from adrug treatment program was sufficient to determine that the defendant violated the pleaagreement (see People v Kitchens, 46 AD3d 577 [2007]; People v Covington, 28AD3d 575 [2006]; People v Garner, 18 AD3d 669 [2005]; see also People v Valencia,3 NY3d 714 [2004]; cf. Torres v Berbary, 340 F3d 63 [2003]).

The sentence imposed was not excessive (see People v Suitte, 90 AD2d 80 [1982]).Fisher, J.P., Florio, Angiolillo and Carni, JJ., concur.
