Opinion
November 25, 1996.
Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Westchester County (Cowhey, J.), rendered May 16, 1995, convicting him of attempted kidnapping in the second degree and criminal use of a firearm in the second degree, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence.
Before: Sullivan, J.P., Copertino, Santucci and Florio, JJ.
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
The defendant's current challenge to the validity of his plea of guilty is unpreserved for appellate review ( see, People v Proctor, 79 NY2d 992; People v Lopez, 71 NY2d 662; People v Pellegrino, 60 NY2d 636). In any event, his contention is unequivocally refuted by the record of the plea proceedings ( see, e.g., People v Santana, 176 AD2d 360), which demonstrates that his plea of guilty was knowingly, voluntarily, and intelligently entered ( see, People v Harris, 61 NY2d 9).
The defendant has foreclosed appellate review of his claim that his statutory right to a speedy trial was violated ( see, CPL 30.30) by entering a plea of guilty ( see, People v Prescott, 66 NY2d 216, 219-220; People v Howe, 56 NY2d 622).
