THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, Respondent, v. CARLOS RIVERA, Appellant.

After sufficient inquiry, the court properly denied defendant's motion to withdraw his guilty plea, without a hearing and without appointment of new counsel. The record establishes that a favorable and voluntary plea was entered after a thorough allocution, and neither defendant's conclusory claim of coercion by counsel nor counsel's statements in response thereto required substitution of counsel ( see, People v. Smith, 253 A.D.2d 668; People v. Bonner, 251 A.D.2d 107, lv denied 92 N.Y.2d 923; People v. Senghor, 248 A.D.2d 299, lv denied 92 N.Y.2d 905).

Concur — Rosenberger, J. P., Ellerin, Williams and Andrias, JJ.
