DECISION ORDER
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
The defendant contends that he was denied his right to a speedy trial under CPL 30.30(1)(a). That statute provides that the People must be ready for a felony trial within six months of the commencement of the criminal action, which occurred here upon the filing of the felony complaint on October 4, 1996. The People had to be ready for trial by April 4, 1997, which was six months, or 182 days, later. Since less than 182 days were chargeable to the People, the Supreme Court properly denied the defendant's motion (see, People v. Goss, 87 N.Y.2d 792; People v. Almonte, 267 A.D.2d 466; People v. David, 253 A.D.2d 642; People v. Lourens, 208 A.D.2d 768).
