People v. Morales
Decision Date | 11 April 2005 |
Docket Number | 2003-08100. |
Citation | 2005 NY Slip Op 02881,17 A.D.3d 487,795 N.Y.S.2d 240 |
Parties | THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, Respondent, v. RICHARD MORALES, Appellant. |
Court | New York Supreme Court — Appellate Division |
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
The defendant's contention that his plea was involuntary is unpreserved for appellate review since he failed to move to withdraw his plea on this ground (see People v Pellegrino, 60 NY2d 636 [1983]; People v Nicholas, 8 AD3d 300 [2004]; People v Alexis, 295 AD2d 529 [2002]). Moreover, to the extent these issues were raised in the defendant's motion pursuant to CPL 440.10, they are not properly before this Court as he failed to seek leave to appeal from the order denying that motion (see People v Nicholas, supra; People v Alexis, supra; People v Torres, 194 AD2d 815 [1993]). In any event, we find no merit to the defendant's contentions that he was coerced and that he was denied the effective assistance of counsel (see People v Rangolan, 295 AD2d 543 [2002]; People v Fernandez, 291 AD2d 456 [2002]; People v Langhorne, 177 AD2d 713 [1991]). Furthermore, the defendant's post-plea statements of innocence made to his probation officer did not warrant vacatur of his plea (see People v Dixon, 29 NY2d 55, 57 [1971]; People v Eaton, 14 AD3d 577 [2005]; People v Richardson, 13 AD3d 561 [2004]; People v Figueroa, 146 AD2d 798 [1989]).
