| The People of the State of New York,Respondent, v Mouhammad Razzaq, Appellant. |
Patricia Pazner, New York, NY (Hannah Kon of counsel), for appellant.
Eric Gonzalez, District Attorney, Brooklyn, NY (Leonard Joblove, Gamaliel Marrero, andAndrew S. Ayala of counsel), for respondent.
Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (EstherMorgenstern, J.), rendered May 16, 2017, convicting him of criminal contempt in the seconddegree, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence.
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
The defendant's contention that his plea of guilty was not voluntary is unpreserved forappellate review, since he did not move to vacate his plea or otherwise raise the issue at anappropriate juncture before the Supreme Court (see CPL 470.05 [2]; People vLopez, 71 NY2d 662, 665 [1988]). In any event, the record as a whole reveals that the pleawas knowingly, voluntarily, and intelligently made (see People v Fiumefreddo, 82 NY2d536, 543 [1993]).
The defendant's contention that he was deprived of the effective assistance of counsel iswithout merit (see People v Caban,5 NY3d 143, 152 [2005]). Iannacci, J.P., Miller, Maltese and Ford, JJ., concur.
