Opinion
December 24, 1984
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Queens County (Gallagher, J.).
Judgment affirmed.
We agree with Criminal Term's determination, made after a Huntley hearing, that four statements made by defendant to police officers were voluntary and, therefore, admissible. There is no evidence in the record to indicate that the statements were the product of unlawful police action, or that defendant, because of pain and/or discomfort caused by a wound he received at the scene, did not know what he was doing at the time he made the incriminating statements (see People v. Lynes, 49 N.Y.2d 286; People v. Kaye, 25 N.Y.2d 139, 144; People v. McKie, 25 N.Y.2d 19).
By failing to make application to the trial court to withdraw his plea or to vacate the judgment of conviction, defendant has not preserved for appellate review the issue of the sufficiency of the plea allocution (see People v. Pellegrino, 60 N.Y.2d 636). In any event, review in the interest of justice would not result in vacatur of the plea because although the court may have failed to specifically advise defendant of his right to cross-examine witnesses and his right to have the People prove his guilt beyond a reasonable doubt, the record discloses that the allocution, at the very least, satisfied the requirements of People v. Harris ( 61 N.Y.2d 9).
We have examined defendant's remaining contention and find it to be without merit. O'Connor, J.P., Brown, Lawrence and Eiber, JJ., concur.
