Opinion
February 14, 1991
Appeal from the Supreme Court, New York County, George F. Roberts, J.
Defendant's failure to challenge the factual sufficiency of the plea allocution by appropriate motion at the trial level, waives the issue on appeal (People v Lopez, 71 N.Y.2d 662).
In any event, the record amply demonstrates that there was no factual insufficiency in the plea allocution and that defendant, represented by counsel present in court, entered a knowing and voluntary plea. (Boykin v Alabama, 395 U.S. 238.)
We have considered defendant's other contentions and find them to be without merit.
Concur — Murphy, P.J., Milonas, Ellerin, Ross and Rubin, JJ.
