Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
The defendant has failed to preserve for appellate review his challenges to the voluntariness of his guilty plea (see, People v Pellegrino, 60 N.Y.2d 636; People v Carlos, 140 A.D.2d 532). In any event, the record reveals that the defendant knowingly, voluntarily and intelligently waived his rights and pleaded guilty (see, People v Harris, 61 N.Y.2d 9).
Furthermore, the defendant's plea of guilty to a lesser crime in this case constituted a waiver of his right to challenge the factual basis for his plea (see, People v Pelchat, 62 N.Y.2d 97; People v Clairborne, 29 N.Y.2d 950; People v Riley, 120 A.D.2d 752). Hence, we reject his claim that the factual recitation of the offense was insufficient to support his plea. Mangano, J.P., Bracken, Eiber, Spatt and Sullivan, JJ., concur.
