People v. Sims

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, First Department
May 31, 2001
283 A.D.2d 368 (N.Y. App. Div. 2001)

Opinion

May 31, 2001.

Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (Ronald Zweibel, J.), rendered April 17, 2000, convicting defendant, upon his plea of guilty, of criminal possession of a controlled substance in the fifth degree, and sentencing him, as a second felony offender, to a term of 2 to 4 years, unanimously affirmed.

Mindy J. Levinson, for respondent.

Luke Martland, for defendant-appellant.

Before: Tom, J.P., Ellerin, Wallach, Buckley, JJ.


After extensive inquiry, the court properly denied defendant's motion to withdraw his guilty plea. The record establishes that the plea had been entered knowingly, intelligently and voluntarily (see, People v. Fiumefreddo, 82 N.Y.2d 536), and that the withdrawal motion was baseless.

THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE SUPREME COURT, APPELLATE DIVISION, FIRST DEPARTMENT.
