The People, etc., respondent, v. Anthony Alexander, appellant.

2009-11419 (Ind.No. 1548-08)

Decided: December 21, 2010

REINALDO E. RIVERA, J.P. JOSEPH COVELLO RANDALL T. ENG JOHN M. LEVENTHAL LEONARD B. AUSTIN, JJ.

Robert C. Mitchell, Riverhead, N.Y. (Alfred J. Cicale of counsel), for appellant. Thomas J. Spota, District Attorney, Riverhead, N.Y. (Ronnie Jane Lamm of counsel), for respondent.

Submitted-December 8, 2010

DECISION & ORDER

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the County Court, Suffolk County (Weber, J.), rendered October 21, 2009, convicting him of attempted robbery in the first degree, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence.

ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant's contention that his plea was coerced is unpreserved for appellate review since the defendant did not move to withdraw his plea or otherwise raise this issue before the County Court (see People v. Lopez, 34 AD3d 599; People v. Whitaker, 27 AD3d 499; People v. Reels, 17 AD3d 488). In any event, the defendant's contention that his plea was coerced is unsupported by the record (see People v. Fiumefreddo, 82 N.Y.2d 536; cf. People v. Grant, 61 AD3d 177).

RIVERA, J.P., COVELLO, ENG, LEVENTHAL and AUSTIN, JJ., concur.
