Opinion
June 10, 1985
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Kings County (Alfano, J.).
Judgments affirmed.
Defendant's claim regarding the sufficiency of the plea allocutions is unpreserved for appellate review as a matter of law (CPL 470.05; People v. Pellegrino, 60 N.Y.2d 636; People v. Mattocks, 100 A.D.2d 944). Furthermore, reversal is not warranted in the interest of justice because the record of the allocutions establishes that the defendant knowingly and voluntarily pleaded guilty ( see, People v. Harris, 61 N.Y.2d 9; People v. Nixon, 21 N.Y.2d 338, cert denied sub nom. Robinson v New York, 393 U.S. 1067).
Finally, we perceive no basis for concluding that the sentences imposed, which were the product of negotiated pleas, warrant modification in the interest of justice ( People v. Kazepis, 101 A.D.2d 816; People v. Suitte, 90 A.D.2d 80). In particular, we note that the indeterminate term of imprisonment of 15 years to life, imposed upon defendant's conviction of murder in the second degree, was the minimum sentence permitted by law (Penal Law § 125.25, 70.00 Penal [2] [a]; [3] [a] [i]). Lazer, J.P., Bracken, O'Connor and Brown, JJ., concur.
