DECISION ORDER
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
A motion to withdraw a plea of guilty is addressed to the sound discretion of the court (see, CPL 220.60; People v. Frederick, 45 N.Y.2d 520). The Supreme Court providently exercised its discretion in denying the defendant's motion to withdraw his plea (see, People v. Carter, 191 A.D.2d 640; People v. Stephens, 175 A.D.2d 272).
