OPINION OF THE COURT

On review of submissions pursuant to rule 500.2 (b) of the Rules of the Court of Appeals (22 NYCRR 500.2 [g]), order affirmed. Whether defendant’s remark constituted a request for counsel, and whether the defendant was induced into making statements by a promise of leniency or a police officer’s legal advice, are questions of fact. These factual issues are beyond this court’s scope of review, inasmuch as the determination denying defendant’s mo *731 tion to suppress statements is supported by the record (People v McRay, 51 NY2d 594; People v Eisenberg, 22 NY2d 99).

Concur: Chief Judge Cooke and Judges Jasen, Jones, Wachtler, Fuchsberg and Meyer. Taking no part: Judge Gabrielli.
