People v. Walker

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Aug 8, 1994
207 A.D.2d 422 (N.Y. App. Div. 1994)

Opinion

August 8, 1994

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


Ordered that the judgments are affirmed.

The defendant's first argument, that the evidence before the Grand Jury was legally insufficient to support the charges contained in Indictment No. 3558/91, is beyond the scope of appellate review as a result of the defendant's plea of guilty to the crime of robbery in the first degree in satisfaction of that indictment (see, People v. Dunbar, 53 N.Y.2d 868, 871; People v Gerber, 182 A.D.2d 252, 261). There is no basis in the record upon which to conclude that the defendant's plea under this indictment, or under Indictment No. 9474/91, was involuntary, nor is there any basis in the record for the argument that the defendant was caused to plead guilty as a result of the ineffective assistance of his attorney in the Supreme Court (see, Hill v. Lockhart, 474 U.S. 52, 59; People v. Hayes, 186 A.D.2d 268). We have examined the defendant's remaining contentions and find them to be without merit. Bracken, J.P., Altman, Krausman and Goldstein, JJ., concur.
