The People, etc., respondent, v. Larry Smith, appellant. (2011)

Submitted-February 23, 2011

DECISION & ORDER

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the County Court, Westchester County (Molea, J.), rendered May 21, 2009, convicting him of burglary in the first degree, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence.

ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant's claim regarding an alleged promise that, upon pleading guilty, he would be committed to a correctional facility within a particular geographic area, involves an issue that is dehors the record and, thus, not reviewable on direct appeal (see People v. Kinchen, 60 N.Y.2d 772, 773-774;  Matter of Benjamin S., 55 N.Y.2d 116, 120-121;  People v. Da Forno, 53 N.Y.2d 1006, 1008;  People v. Chrysler, 288 A.D.2d 318, 319;  People v. Branch, 288 A.D.2d 55, 55-56;  People v. Finch, 279 A.D.2d 588;  People v. St. Gelais, 245 A.D.2d 318, 319;  People v. Watford, 239 A.D.2d 367, 367-368).
