Defendant's motion to withdraw his plea was properly denied. Defendant was afforded a reasonable opportunity to present his specific assertions by means of written application and the court considered the motion extensively prior to sentencing ( People v Woodard, 208 A.D.2d 411, lv denied 84 N.Y.2d 1040). The minutes of the plea proceeding established that a favorable plea was entered knowingly and voluntarily, after a thorough allocution, belying defendant's unsupported claims that his plea was involuntary and coerced by his attorney ( see, People v. Fiumefreddo, 82 N.Y.2d 536; People v. Jackson, 186 A.D.2d 389, lv denied 81 N.Y.2d 790).
We have considered defendant's other claims and find them to be without merit.
Concur — Sullivan, J.P., Rosenberger, Ellerin, Williams and Colabella, JJ.
