May 2, 2006.
Judgment, Supreme Court, Bronx County (John A. Barone, J.), rendered August 26, 2004, convicting defendant, upon his plea of guilty, of attempted assault in the first degree, and sentencing him to a term of 3½ years, unanimously affirmed.
Center for Appellate Litigation, New York (Robert S. Dean of counsel), for appellant.
Robert T. Johnson, District Attorney, Bronx (Nancy D. Killian of counsel), for respondent.
Before: Buckley, P.J., Andrias, Nardelli, Sweeny and McGuire, JJ.
The court properly denied defendant's motion to withdraw his plea of guilty ( see People v. Frederick, 45 NY2d 520). Each of the claims defendant made in his written motion was directly contradicted by the plea allocution record, which establishes that the plea was knowing, intelligent and voluntary. Defendant was not entitled to a hearing or further inquiry simply because, in his motion, he disavowed the responses he had made to the court's careful questioning at the time of the plea.
