PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, PLAINTIFF-RESPONDENT, v. RICHARD SNITZEL, DEFENDANT-APPELLANT.

Judgment unanimously affirmed.

Memorandum:

By failing to move to withdraw his plea of guilty or to vacate the judgment of conviction, defendant failed to preserve for our review the contention in his pro se supplemental brief that his plea was not knowingly, voluntarily or intelligently entered ( see, People v. Earket , 256 A.D.2d 1194, lv denied 93 N.Y.2d 873). The further contention of defendant in his pro se supplemental brief that he was denied effective assistance of counsel based on defense counsel's failure to make appropriate motions is without merit. To the extent that defendant's contention is based on defense counsel's failure to provide appropriate advice with respect to plea offers and to investigate defendant's case, it is based upon information outside of the record and thus is not subject to review on direct appeal ( see, People v. Chiera , 255 A.D.2d 685, 686; People v. Speed , 226 A.D.2d 1090, 1091, lv denied 88 N.Y.2d 969 ). The sentence is neither unduly harsh nor severe.
