DECISION ORDER
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
The defendant contends that he was not advised of the consequences of the waiver of his right to appeal the judgment of conviction and therefore his plea was not voluntary. However, there is no indication in the record that the defendant's plea was conditioned upon a waiver of his right to appeal.
The defendant's further contention that the court was obligated to insure that his plea was knowing and voluntary is not preserved for appellate review (see, People v. Pellegrino, 60 N.Y.2d 636). In any event, as two psychologists found the defendant competent to proceed to trial and the defendant himself indicated to the court that he understood the plea proceedings, the court had no obligation to inquire further into his competency (see, People v. Durant, 198 A.D.2d 515).
The defendant's claim of ineffective assistance of counsel is belied by the record. The defendant admitted at the time of his plea that he had had a full and complete opportunity to speak to his attorney, and that he was satisfied with his legal representation (see, People v. Harris, 222 A.D.2d 522). Moreover, under the circumstances of this case, where the defendant, who was found competent to proceed to trial, admitted to the police that he had killed the victim, and was promised the minimum sentence in exchange for his plea of guilty, the plea was well advised.
