Opinion
February 21, 1991
Appeal from the County Court of Madison County (Humphreys, J.).
By failing to seek to withdraw his plea of guilty prior to sentencing or by a postconviction motion to vacate the plea, defendant has failed to preserve the question of its validity for our review (see, People v Claudio, 64 N.Y.2d 858). In any event, the record establishes that at the time of his plea, a thorough plea allocution was made and the plea was knowingly and voluntarily made (see, People v Clickner, 128 A.D.2d 917, lv denied 70 N.Y.2d 644).
Judgment affirmed. Weiss, J.P., Mikoll, Yesawich, Jr., Levine and Mercure, JJ., concur.
