People v. Sanchez
Opinion of the Court
—Appeals by the de
Ordered that the judgments are affirmed.
It was not improper for the police to put the defendant in a lineup even though they were aware that he was represented by counsel on an unrelated matter. Formal criminal proceedings against the defendant had not yet commenced and the defendant did not request the assistance of counsel at the lineup (see, People v Hernandez, 70 NY2d 833; People v McKenzie, 180 AD2d 827; People v Bryant, 178 AD2d 420; cf., People v Coates, 74 NY2d 244; People v LoPizzo, 173 AD2d 562).
The defendant’s remaining contentions, including those raised in his pro se supplemental brief, were waived as a part of the negotiated plea bargain (see, People v Callahan, 80 NY2d 273; People v Seaberg, 74 NY2d 1). Rosenblatt, J. P., Copertino, Friedmann and Krausman, JJ., concur.
