V MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
SAMUEL DIPALMA, DEFENDANT-APPELLANT. (APPEAL NO. 2.)
THE LEGAL AID BUREAU OF BUFFALO, INC., BUFFALO (TIMOTHY P. MURPHY OF COUNSEL), FOR DEFENDANT-APPELLANT.
MICHAEL J. FLAHERTY, JR., ACTING DISTRICT ATTORNEY, BUFFALO (NICHOLAS T. TEXIDO OF COUNSEL), FOR RESPONDENT.
Appeal from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Erie County (M. William Boller, A.J.), rendered October 15, 2013. The judgment convicted defendant, upon his plea of guilty, of criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree.
It is hereby ORDERED that the judgment so appealed from is unanimously affirmed.
Memorandum: In appeal No. 1, defendant appeals from a judgment convicting him upon his plea of guilty of driving while intoxicated (Vehicle and Traffic Law §§ 1192 [3]; 1193 [1] [c] [i] [A]) and, in appeal No. 2, he appeals from a judgment convicting him upon his plea of guilty of criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree (Penal Law § 265.03 [3]). The People correctly concede that the waiver of the right to appeal his conviction did not encompass defendant’s contention in appeal No. 2 that the period of postrelease supervision is unduly harsh and severe and thus does not foreclose our review of that contention (see People v Maracle, 19 NY3d 925, 927-928; People v Diaz, 142 AD3d 1332, 1333). We nevertheless reject that contention.
Contrary to defendant’s contention in appeal No. 1, Supreme Court did not impose a fee of $350, rather than the proper fee of $50, for the DNA databank fee (see Penal Law § 60.35 [1] [a] [v]). Although the sentencing transcript reflects the imposition of a DNA databank fee of $350, the transcript further reflects that the court correctly stated the total amount due from defendant for fees and surcharges, which establishes that the court properly imposed a fee of $50. Moreover, the certificate of conviction correctly states that $50 was assessed for the DNA databank fee. We therefore conclude that no corrective action is necessary inasmuch as the record establishes

either that the court misspoke or that there is a transcription error (see People v Kaetzel, 117 AD3d 1187, 1190, lv denied 24 NY3d 962).
