Ordered that the judgments are affirmed.
We reject the defendant's contention that the Supreme Court erred in denying his motion to withdraw his pleas of guilty. The determination as to whether to allow a defendant to withdraw a previously-entered plea of guilty rests within the sound discretion of the sentencing court ( see, CPL 220.60; People v. Frederick, 45 N.Y.2d 520; People v. Stubbs, 110 A.D.2d 725). The defendant's bare assertion of innocence was insufficient to warrant withdrawal of his pleas ( see, People v Bourdonnay, 160 A.D.2d 1014). In addition, the defendant's pleas were voluntarily, knowingly, and intelligently entered into ( see, People v. Harris, 61 N.Y.2d 9). Bracken, J.P., Miller, Joy, Hart and Krausman, JJ., concur.
