THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, Respondent, v. ROBERT MILLER, Appellant.

Judgment unanimously affirmed. Memorandum: Contrary to the contention of defendant, County Court did not abuse its discretion in denying his motion to withdraw his guilty plea. The conclusory allegation of defendant that, his counsel had pressured him to plead guilty is insufficient to require vacatur of the plea ( see, People v. Jackson, 171 A.D.2d 883, 884, lv denied 78 N.Y.2d 967; People v. Seger, 171 A.D.2d 892, lv dismissed 78 N.Y.2d 1081; People v. Washington, 156 A.D.2d 496, lv denied 75 N.Y.2d 925; People v. Brown, 142 A.D.2d 683; People v. Matta, 103 A.D.2d 756, lv denied 63 N.Y.2d 777). In any event, that allegation is belied by the unequivocal statement of defendant during the plea allocution that he had not been threatened, forced or coerced in any way into pleading guilty ( see, People v. Samuel, 208 A.D.2d 776, 777, lv denied 84 N.Y.2d 1038; People v. Jackson, 203 A.D.2d 302, lv denied 84 N.Y.2d 827).

Defendant's remaining contention has not been preserved for our review ( see, CPL 470.05), and, in any event, it is without merit.
