| The People of the State of New York,
Respondent, v Frank K. Wisniewski, Appellant. |
Norman P. Effman, Public Defender, Warsaw (Marshall A. Kelly of counsel), for defendant-appellant.
Donald G. O'Geen, District Attorney, Warsaw (Vincent A. Hemming of counsel), for respondent.
Appeal from a judgment of the Wyoming County Court (Michael M. Mohun, J.), rendered December 17, 2015. The judgment convicted defendant, upon his plea of guilty, of criminal sale of a controlled substance in the third degree and criminal possession of a controlled substance in the third degree.
It is hereby ordered that the judgment so appealed from is unanimously affirmed.
Memorandum: Defendant appeals from a judgment convicting him upon his guilty plea of criminal sale of a controlled substance in the third degree (Penal Law § 220.39 [1]) and criminal possession of a controlled substance in the third degree (§ 220.16 [1]). Defendant's contention that County Court erred in failing to conduct an audibility hearing and to render a decision thereon does not survive his guilty plea (see People v Gillett, 105 AD3d 1444, 1444 [4th Dept 2013]). By pleading guilty, defendant forfeited review of the merits of his contention regarding the audibility of certain evidence (see People v Dunkins, 231 AD2d 587, 588 [2d Dept 1996], lv denied 89 NY2d 863 [1996]; see also People v Alvarado, 103 AD3d 1101, 1101 [4th Dept 2013], lv denied 21 NY3d 910 [2013]). Present—Whalen, P.J., Centra, Lindley and NeMoyer, JJ.
