Casey, J.
A guilty plea effects a forfeiture of the right to renew many arguments made before the plea (People v. Taylor, 65 N.Y.2d 1, 5), and we are of the view that defendant's severance motion is one of those arguments which does not survive a guilty plea (see, People v. Shepphard, 177 A.D.2d 668). We reject defendant's contention that he was forced or coerced into pleading guilty by the denial of his severance motion. It is clear from the plea colloquy that the guilty plea was a knowing and voluntary one. The judgment should be affirmed.
Weiss, P.J., Yesawich Jr., Crew III and Harvey, JJ., concur. Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
