MEMORANDUM:
On appeal from a judgment convicting him upon his plea of guilty of burglary in the third degree (Penal Law § 140.20 ), tampering with physical evidence (§ 215.40[2] ), and conspiracy in the fourth degree (§ 105.10[1] ), defendant contends that his plea was not knowing, voluntary, and intelligent based on County Court's failure to inform him of certain constitutional due process rights before eliciting his factual admissions. However, "defendant failed to preserve his contention for our review by failing to move to withdraw his guilty plea or to vacate the judgment of conviction on that ground" (People v. Wilson, 115 A.D.3d 1229, 1229, 982 N.Y.S.2d 636, lv. denied 23 N.Y.3d 969, 988 N.Y.S.2d 577, 11 N.E.3d 727 ; see People v. Williams, 27 N.Y.3d 212, 221–222, 32 N.Y.S.3d 17, 51 N.E.3d 528 ). Contrary to defendant's further contention, the sentence is not unduly harsh or severe.
It is hereby ORDERED that the judgment so appealed from is unanimously affirmed.
