Opinion
April 28, 1992
Appeal from the Supreme Court, New York County, Allen G. Alpert, J., Frederic S. Berman, J.
Upon review of the record, we find that defendant's plea was knowing and voluntary (People v Harris, 61 N.Y.2d 9), and that defendant's right to effective assistance of counsel was not abridged by the court's refusal to adjourn the sentencing, an associate of defendant's attorney having been present at the sentencing to make sure that he received the promised sentence (compare, People v Spears, 64 N.Y.2d 698).
