People v. Ayala
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York · Decided January 7, 1997
235 A.D.2d 212; 697 N.Y.S.2d 844; 1997 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 42
People v. Ayala

Opinion of the Court

Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (Allen Alpert, J.), rendered January 6, 1994, convicting defendant, upon his plea of guilty, of attempted criminal possession of a controlled substance in the third degree, and sentencing him, as a second felony offender, to a term of 3 to 6 years, unanimously affirmed.

We find that defendant’s waiver of his right to appeal any pretrial rulings, made in connection with his plea bargain, was voluntary, knowing and intelligent (see, People v White, 228 AD2d 308) and that his claim on appeal that the hearing court erred in denying suppression is therefore unreviewable (People v Powers, 231 AD2d 477), and, in any event, without merit. Concur—Ellerin, J. P., Wallach, Williams, Tom and Andrias, JJ.
