ANTHONY BARTON, Appellant. ¶ Judgment affirmed. ¶ Nothing in defendant's recitation of his participation in the crime, or in the other facts otherwise known of the killing, indicates that justification or self-defense could have been a realistic defense. In such a case, the trial court is not under any duty to further inquire (see People v Serrano, 15 N.Y.2d 304; People v. Moore, 91 A.D.2d 1050). Nor may the trial court's imposition of a sentence of 8 1/3 to 25 years in return for a guilty plea to the reduced charge of manslaughter in the first degree be considered an abuse of discretion. We have examined defendant's other contentions and they are without merit. Thompson, J.P., Bracken, Rubin and Eiber, JJ., concur.
