Opinion
November 15, 1988
Appeal from the Niagara County Court, DiFlorio, J.
Present — Dillon, P.J., Denman, Balio, Lawton and Davis, JJ.
Judgment unanimously reversed on the law, plea vacated and matter remitted to Niagara County Court for further proceedings on the indictment. Memorandum: At sentencing, defendant's motion to withdraw her guilty plea was summarily denied by the court. Although a limited inquiry is generally sufficient for the court to make an informed determination on a motion to withdraw a guilty plea, it was error for the court to deny defendant's motion without affording her a reasonable opportunity to present her contentions (People v Tinsley, 35 N.Y.2d 926, 927; People v. Johnson, 96 A.D.2d 516; People v. Smith, 33 A.D.2d 688).
