Steven A. Feldman, Uniondale, N.Y., for appellant. Madeline Singas, Acting District Attorney, Mineola, N.Y. (Yael V. Levy and Cristin N. Connell of counsel), for respondent.
Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Nassau County (Donnino, J.), rendered September 11, 2013, convicting him of attempted robbery in the second degree, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence.
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
Contrary to the defendant's contention, the Supreme Court did not improvidently exercise its discretion in denying, without a hearing, his motion to withdraw his plea of guilty ( seeCPL 220.60[3] ), since the record supports a finding that his plea was entered knowingly, voluntarily, and intelligently ( see People v. Smith, 123 A.D.3d 950, 951, 999 N.Y.S.2d 459; People v. West, 123 A.D.3d 850, 996 N.Y.S.2d 534; People v. Haywood, 122 A.D.3d 769, 996 N.Y.S.2d 137; People v. Howard, 109 A.D.3d 487, 487–488, 970 N.Y.S.2d 86; People v. Bediako, 119 A.D.3d 598, 987 N.Y.S.2d 895; People v. Mirecki, 63 A.D.3d 1089, 880 N.Y.S.2d 569).
