People v. Dixon

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Feb 13, 1996
224 A.D.2d 543 (N.Y. App. Div. 1996)

Opinion

February 13, 1996

Appeal from the County Court, Orange County (Pano Z. Patsalos, J.).


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant contends for the first time on appeal that his plea allocution failed to set forth every element of the crime charged and that it set forth every element of the agency defense. Since the defendant did not move to withdraw his plea of guilty or move to vacate the judgment of conviction, this issue is not preserved for appellate review (see, People v. Lopez, 71 N.Y.2d 662; People v. Pellegrino, 60 N.Y.2d 636). In any event, the record of the plea allocution demonstrates that the trial court, when confronted with statements casting doubt upon the defendant's guilt, properly conducted further inquiry to ensure that the defendant's plea was knowing and voluntary and that he possessed the necessary criminal intent (see, People v. Lopez, supra). Bracken, J.P., Miller, Joy, Hart and Krausman, JJ., concur.
