Appeal from the Supreme Court, Bronx County (Gerald Sheindlin, J.).
Defendant failed to preserve his current challenges to his guilty plea since he did not move to withdraw his plea and we decline to review these claims in the interest of justice. Were we to review them, we would find from our examination of the record that defendant voluntarily, entered his plea and that the allocution was sufficient in all respects despite the intemperate remarks of the court ( see, People v. Fiumefreddo, 82 N.Y.2d 536; People v. Lopez, 71 N.Y.2d 662, 666). We further find that the record does not support defendant's contentions of ineffective assistance of counsel ( see, People v. Ford, 86 N.Y.2d 397, 404).
