People v. Vargas

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Oct 26, 1992
186 A.D.2d 834 (N.Y. App. Div. 1992)

Opinion

October 26, 1992

Appeal from the County Court, Westchester County (Silverman, J.).


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

On appeal, the defendant contends that the court improvidently exercised its discretion when it refused to grant the defendant's applications for a post-indictment preliminary hearing and to strike certain language from the indictment. However, the defendant is barred from raising these claims on appeal since, as a condition of his guilty plea, the defendant withdrew all of his motions, whether pending or decided. Accordingly, the defendant waived his right to challenge the denial of these applications on appeal.

The defendant pleaded guilty with the full understanding that he would receive the sentence that was actually imposed. Thus, he will not now be heard to complain that his sentence was excessive (see, People v Kazepis, 101 A.D.2d 816). Mangano, P.J., Sullivan, O'Brien, Ritter and Pizzuto, JJ., concur.
