People v. Drayton

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, First Department
Jun 30, 1994
205 A.D.2d 470 (N.Y. App. Div. 1994)

Opinion

June 30, 1994

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Bronx County (Alexander Hunter, J.).


The trial court did not abuse its discretion in denying without a hearing defendant's motion made at sentencing to withdraw his plea, defendant's bare claims of ignorance of the consequences of pleading guilty and coercion presenting no legitimate factual issues where the record unequivocally shows that defendant, after being carefully advised by the court in the presence of counsel of the consequences of pleading guilty, admitted his guilt and entered his plea knowingly, intelligently and voluntarily (People v. Lawton, 203 A.D.2d 141; People v. McCray, 188 A.D.2d 342, lv denied 81 N.Y.2d 974).

Concur — Sullivan, J.P., Carro, Ellerin and Asch, JJ.
