Annotate this Case
People v House 2010 NY Slip Op 06889 [77 AD3d 1334] October 1, 2010 Appellate Division, Fourth Department Published by New York State Law Reporting Bureau pursuant to Judiciary Law § 431. As corrected through Wednesday, December 15, 2010

The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Marlin J. House, Appellant.

—[*1] Ronald C. Valentine, Public Defender, Lyons (David M. Parks of counsel), for defendant-appellant.

Richard M. Healy, District Attorney, Lyons (Jacqueline McCormick of counsel), for respondent.

Appeal from a judgment of the Wayne County Court (Stephen R. Sirkin, J.), rendered November 21, 2008. The judgment convicted defendant, upon his plea of guilty, of attempted assault in the second degree.

It is hereby ordered that the judgment so appealed from is unanimously affirmed.

Memorandum: Defendant appeals from a judgment convicting him upon his plea of guilty of attempted assault in the second degree (Penal Law §§ 110.00, 120.05 [3]). Contrary to the contention of defendant, we conclude that County Court properly denied his motion to withdraw the plea. The record of the plea colloquy establishes that the factual allocution was sufficient and that defendant's plea was voluntarily, knowingly and intelligently entered (see People v Vogler, 156 AD2d 932 [1989], lv denied 75 NY2d 872 [1990]). We reject the further contention of defendant that he was improperly sentenced as a second felony offender. The record establishes that the court complied with CPL 400.21 (3) by asking defendant whether he wished to controvert any allegation in the People's predicate felony statement, and that defendant responded by admitting that the contents thereof were accurate. Present—Smith, J.P., Carni, Lindley, Sconiers and Pine, JJ.
