People v. Espinoza

Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (Gregory Carro, J.), rendered November 28, 2012, convicting defendant, upon his plea of guilty, of aggravated unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle in the first degree, and sentencing him to a term of 45 days and a $500 fine, unanimously affirmed.

The record establishes that defendant’s plea was entered knowingly, intelligently and voluntarily (see People v Harris, 61 NY2d 9, 16-19 [1983]; compare People v Tyrell, 22 NY3d 359 [2013]). The alleged deficiency in the plea allocution did .not constitute a mode of proceedings error or call into question the voluntariness of the plea.
