People v. Carter

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Jun 19, 1995
216 A.D.2d 482 (N.Y. App. Div. 1995)

Opinion

June 19, 1995

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Queens County (Blumenfeld, J.).


Ordered that the judgments are affirmed.

The defendant contends that his statements to the police and certain identification evidence should be suppressed and his pleas of guilty vacated because he was denied his right to counsel. The defendant's claim of the denial of his right to counsel does not pertain to Indictment No. 4285/90, to which he had pleaded guilty before his arrest under the remaining indictments, at which arrest the alleged denial of his right to counsel occurred. Furthermore, with regard to the remaining indictments, by pleading guilty before any determination on his suppression motions, the defendant has forfeited his right to appellate review of any nonjurisdictional defects in the proceedings (see, People v. Fernandez, 67 N.Y.2d 686, 688). Pizzuto, J.P., Hart, Friedmann and Florio, JJ., concur.
