Opinion
December 3, 1984
Appeal from the County Court, Nassau County (Goodman, J.).
Judgment affirmed.
Defendant's plea of guilty operated as a waiver of his claim that he was entitled to have the indictment dismissed on the ground that the People were not ready for trial within the time prescribed by CPL 30.30 (subd 1, par [a]). Accordingly, we do not consider the merits of defendant's statutory "speedy trial" claim on the instant appeal ( People v. Savage, 54 N.Y.2d 697, 698; see, also, People v. O'Brien, 56 N.Y.2d 1009). Moreover, defendant's "speedy trial" motion was untimely, as it was brought after he entered his plea of guilty (see CPL 210.20, subd 2). Even if defendant's claim that he was denied his constitutional right to a speedy trial were to be considered as surviving his guilty plea, he has failed to demonstrate that he is entitled to relief in accordance with the factors enumerated in People v Taranovich ( 37 N.Y.2d 442, 445; see People v. Savage, supra; People v. Lomax, 50 N.Y.2d 351, 358-359).
Defendant asserts that the indictment was defective and should be dismissed for reasons that include the failure to properly establish venue for two of the charged offenses in the prosecuting jurisdiction, the improper joinder of other offenses with the charge of robbery in the first degree (see CPL 200.20, subd 2) and the insufficiency of the evidence presented to the Grand Jury. The above issues are not properly before this court on the instant appeal as they do not constitute jurisdictional objections related to the right of the People to prosecute defendant and were thus waived by him when he entered his plea of guilty (see People v. Thomas, 74 A.D.2d 317, 319-321, affd 53 N.Y.2d 338; see, also, People v. Dunbar, 53 N.Y.2d 868, 871; People v Iannone, 45 N.Y.2d 589, 600-601; People v. Case, 42 N.Y.2d 98, 100; People v. Williams, 14 N.Y.2d 568, mot for rearg den 14 N.Y.2d 689). Defendant's contentions that the indictment must be dismissed as it was based upon illegally seized evidence and a mistaken identification were also waived by his plea of guilty which was entered prior to a determination of his pretrial motion (see People v. Thomas, supra, pp 320-321; People v. Corti, 88 A.D.2d 345) and, in any event, lack merit (see People v. Oakley, 28 N.Y.2d 309; People v. Brewster, 100 A.D.2d 134; People v. Mauceri, 74 A.D.2d 833).
We have considered the remaining contentions of defendant and find them to be without merit. Weinstein, J.P., Brown, Rubin and Eiber, JJ., concur.
