People v. Velez

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Jan 27, 1992
179 A.D.2d 834 (N.Y. App. Div. 1992)

Opinion

January 27, 1992

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Kings County (Heller, J.).


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

By virtue of his guilty plea, the defendant forfeited the right to appellate review of the denial of his motion to dismiss the indictment for violation of his statutory right to a speedy trial (see, People v. O'Brien, 56 N.Y.2d 1009; People v. Friscia, 51 N.Y.2d 845; cf., People v. Shepphard, 177 A.D.2d 668; CPL 30.30). Moreover, the defendant bargained for and received the statutorily authorized minimum sentence for the crime to which he pleaded guilty (see, Penal Law § 70.00, [3]; see also, § 220.43). Therefore, his challenge to his sentence is without merit (see, People v. Kazepis, 101 A.D.2d 816). Thompson, J.P., Sullivan, Harwood and O'Brien, JJ., concur.
