Opinion
September 17, 1991
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Bronx County (Fred Eggert, J.).
Defendant's claim that the plea allocution was inadequate is not preserved. The plea was entered after extensive negotiations, and defendant, who had much experience with the criminal justice system, did not move to withdraw it. (People v. Ramirez, 159 A.D.2d 392, lv denied 76 N.Y.2d 863.) There is no evidence in the record to support defendant's claim that he was deprived of effective assistance of counsel. (People v. Brown, 45 N.Y.2d 852.) There is no basis to disturb defendant's sentence, which was the minimum permissible.
Concur — Sullivan, J.P., Milonas, Ross, Asch and Smith, JJ.
