People v. Randall

Opinion of the Court

Defendant’s claim that his guilty plea was coerced by his attorney is belied by the minutes of the. plea proceeding and plea withdrawal hearing, which show that the plea represented a voluntary and intelligent choice among alternative courses of action, including exposure to a harsher sentence after trial or even after further plea negotiations (see, People v Harris, 61 NY2d 9, 19-20). Concur — Sullivan, J. P., Rosenberger, Nardelli, Williams and Tom, JJ.
