Opinion
February 24, 1986
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Queens County (Rotker, J.).
Judgment affirmed.
The defendant's guilt was proven beyond a reasonable doubt (see, People v. Contes, 60 N.Y.2d 620, 621). The defendant's contention that his first felony conviction cannot serve as the basis for sentencing him as a second felony offender because he was not advised, prior to the plea resulting in the original felony conviction, that he would thereafter be subject to enhanced punishment, is without merit (see, People v. Towles, 110 A.D.2d 729). Gibbons, J.P., Brown, Lawrence and Kooper, JJ., concur.
