People v. Anderwkavich

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Aug 31, 1992
185 A.D.2d 986 (N.Y. App. Div. 1992)

Opinion

August 31, 1992

Appeal from the County Court, Nassau County (O'Shaughnessy, J.).


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant's challenge to the factual sufficiency of his plea allocution is unpreserved for appellate review (see, People v. Lopez, 71 N.Y.2d 662; People v. Pellegrino, 60 N.Y.2d 636; People v. Nerys, 181 A.D.2d 921). In any event, we find that the County Court properly accepted the defendant's plea. The record demonstrates that the defendant pleaded guilty after a complete and detailed plea allocution, during which he expressed satisfaction with his attorney, readily admitted that he intended to kill the victim, and was fully apprised of the consequences of his plea (see, People v. Harris, 61 N.Y.2d 9). During the allocution the defendant's factual admissions were sufficient to establish all of the elements of the crime to which he pleaded guilty (see, Penal Law § 125.25). Accordingly, we find no basis for reversal of the defendant's judgment of conviction and vacatur of his plea (see, People v. Vargas, 182 A.D.2d 729; People v. Nightingale, 181 A.D.2d 832). Thompson, J.P., Sullivan, O'Brien and Santucci, JJ., concur.
