Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Marrus, J.), rendered June 3, 1999, convicting him of murder in the first degree, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence.
Daniel L. Greenberg, New York, N.Y. (Michelle Fox of counsel), for appellant, and appellant pro se.
Charles J. Hynes, District Attorney, Brooklyn, N.Y. (Leonard Joblove and Jodi L. Mandel of counsel; John Preuss on the brief), for respondent.
Before: FRED T. SANTUCCI, J.P., SONDRA MILLER, DANIEL F. LUCIANO, SANDRA J. FEUERSTEIN, THOMAS A. ADAMS, JJ.
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
The Supreme Court providently exercised its discretion in denying the defendant's motion to withdraw his plea of guilty without holding a hearing (see, People v. Dickerson, 163 A.D.2d 610).
The contentions raised by the defendant in his supplemental pro se brief are without merit.
