People v. Placencia

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Jan 16, 1996
223 A.D.2d 605 (N.Y. App. Div. 1996)

Opinion

January 16, 1996

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Queens County (Demakos, J.).


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

Contrary to the defendant's contentions, there was no "unnecessary delay" in his arraignment (CPL 140.20; see, People v Wilson, 56 N.Y.2d 692; People v Blake, 35 N.Y.2d 331; People v Quartieri, 171 A.D.2d 889; People v Cooper, 101 A.D.2d 1).

The defendant's confession was voluntary and does not warrant suppression ( see, People v Ortlieb, 84 N.Y.2d 989).

The defendant pleaded guilty with the understanding that he would receive a sentence within a certain scope; such a sentence was thereafter imposed. Under the circumstances of this case, the defendant has no basis to now complain that his sentence is excessive ( see, People v Gelzer, 212 A.D.2d 630; People v Kazepis, 101 A.D.2d 816). Bracken, J.P., Balletta, Rosenblatt and Altman, JJ., concur.
