Opinion

December 22, 1995

Appeal from the Monroe County Court, Marks, J.

Present — Green, J.P., Pine, Fallon, Callahan and Davis, JJ.

Judgment unanimously affirmed. Memorandum: County Court properly denied the motion to suppress defendant's statements to the police. The record supports the court's determination that the statements were voluntarily made (see, CPL 60.45) and that they were not obtained in violation of defendant's right to counsel (see, People v Bing, 76 N.Y.2d 331; People v Windbush, 202 A.D.2d 527, lv denied 83 N.Y.2d 878).

The sentence imposed is not unduly harsh or severe.
