People v. Grigger
Citations: 244 A.D.2d 205; 665 N.Y.S.2d 272; 1997 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 11388
Court: Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York; November 12, 1997; New York; State Appellate Court
Judgment from the Supreme Court, Bronx County, rendered on October 30, 1995, affirms the conviction of the defendant for criminal sale of a controlled substance in the third degree, following a guilty plea. The defendant, classified as a second felony offender, received a sentence of 9 years in prison. The court rejected the defendant’s attempt to withdraw his guilty plea, finding that his claims of innocence and confusion were unsubstantiated. The court, being familiar with the plea proceedings, determined that the record contradicted the defendant's assertions. The defendant had previously entered his plea knowingly and voluntarily and had opportunities to articulate his claims. The decision was concurred by Judges Rosenberger, Nardelli, Andrias, and Colabella.
