Jan 22, 1990

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant's challenge to the sufficiency of his plea allocution is not preserved for appellate review since the defendant did not move to withdraw his plea prior to sentencing (see, People v. Pellegrino, 60 N.Y.2d 636). In any event, contrary to the defendant's position, the plea minutes clearly indicate that the defendant, who was fully advised of his rights and the consequences of his plea, entered his plea knowingly and voluntarily (see, People v. Harris, 61 N.Y.2d 9).

The defendant's contention that the sentencing court erred in imposing sentence based upon an incomplete sentencing report is similarly unpreserved for appellate review as the defendant did not raise this claim at sentencing (see, CPL 470.05; People v. Morales, 127 A.D.2d 797). In any event, the defendant cannot be heard to complain about the absence of a complete presentence report inasmuch as the report specifically indicates that it was incomplete because the defendant refused to be interviewed by the Department of Probation (see, People v Morales, supra; People v. Scales, 121 A.D.2d 578).

We have reviewed the defendant's remaining contention and find it to be without merit. Mollen, P.J., Mangano, Thompson and Brown, JJ., concur.
