People v. Simmons

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Apr 7, 1997
238 A.D.2d 360 (N.Y. App. Div. 1997)

Opinion

April 7, 1997


Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the County Court, Suffolk County (Tisch, J.), rendered May 18, 1995, convicting him of burglary in the second degree (two counts), upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

Under the circumstances of this case, we conclude that the County Court acted properly in not conducting an inquiry into the defendant's allegations of ineffective assistance of counsel ( cf., People v. Sides, 75 N.Y.2d 822).

The sentence imposed by the court was not excessive ( see, People v. Suitte, 90 A.D.2d 80).

The defendant's remaining contention is without merit. Miller, J.P., Thompson, Joy and Luciano, JJ., concur.
