PEOPLE v. PITT

ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.

There is no merit to the defendant's contention that the court erred in failing to conduct a mental competency hearing ( see, CPL 730.30; see, People v. Morgan, 87 N.Y.2d 878; People v. Armlin, 37 N.Y.2d 167, 171; People v. Lucci, 250 A.D.2d 780). Moreover, the record reveals that the defendant's plea was knowingly, intelligently, and voluntarily entered ( see, People v. Harris, 61 N.Y.2d 9). In addition, contrary to her contention, the defendant received effective assistance of counsel ( see, People v. Baldi, 54 N.Y.2d 137). The defendant's attorney negotiated an advantageous plea agreement that substantially limited her exposure to imprisonment ( see, People v. Mobley, 221 A.D.2d 376; People v. Williams, 221 A.D.2d 674).
