People v. Towles

People v. Towles
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York · Decided April 8, 1985
110 A.D.2d 729; 488 N.Y.S.2d 41; 1985 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 48632
People v. Towles

Opinion of the Court

Defendant contends that his first felony conviction could not serve as a basis for sentencing him as a second felony offender because prior to the plea resulting in the original felony conviction he was not advised that he would thereafter be subject to enhanced punishment for a subsequent felony conviction. This contention is without merit (People v Harris, 61 NY2d 9; People v McGrath, 43 NY2d 803; People v Sirianni, 89 AD2d 775).

We have considered defendant’s other contention and find it to be without merit. Mollen, P. J., Mangano, Thompson and O’Con-nor, JJ., concur.
