*371OPINION OF THE COURT
Dominic R. Massaro, J.
Defendant Ramell Lankford moves for resentencing pursuant to the Drug Law Reform Act of 20091 (see CPL 440.46). Defendant seeks the court’s discretion to resentence him under Penal Law §§ 60.04 and 70.70 and reduce his sentence for a class B felony narcotics conviction under the Rockefeller Drug Laws because the sentence received was excessive and he is eligible for resentencing under the Drug Law Reform Act of 2009 (hereinafter DLRA). Defendant claims eligibility for resentencing even though he was not incarcerated at the time of the within filing.
