Opinion
May 24, 1993
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Richmond County (Kuffner, J.).
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
The defendant contends that he was induced to plead guilty by the threat of a heavier sentence if he went to trial. We find this contention to be without merit, as a review of the record reveals that the defendant's plea was knowing, voluntary and intelligent (see generally, People v Harris, 61 N.Y.2d 9). The defendant's remaining contention is also without merit (see, People v Frederick, 45 N.Y.2d 520; People v Mitchell, 176 A.D.2d 967). Mangano, P.J., Sullivan, O'Brien, Ritter and Pizzuto, JJ., concur.
