The PEOPLE of the State of New York, Respondent, v. Kristian WHEELER, Appellant.

ROSE, J.

Theodore J. Stein, Woodstock, for appellant.

D. Holley Carnright, District Attorney, Kingston (Joan Gudesblatt Lamb of counsel), for respondent.

Before: PETERS, P.J., EGAN JR., ROSE and LYNCH, JJ.

Opinion

ROSE, J.Appeal from a judgment of the County Court of Ulster County (Williams, J.), rendered October 10, 2012, convicting defendant upon his plea of guilty of the crime of criminal sale of a controlled substance in the third degree.

Defendant was charged in a six-count indictment arising out of three separate sales of crack cocaine. In full satisfaction appeal, we rejected his counsel's Anders brief and assigned new counsel to address, at a minimum, County Court's error in informing defendant of the incorrect maximum term of incarceration (119 A.D.3d at 1237, 989 N.Y.S.2d 405 ).

On this appeal, defendant's contention that his plea was not knowing, voluntary and intelligent because County Court erroneously stated his maximum potential terms of incarceration on the crimes charged is unpreserved for our review, as the record on appeal does not reflect that defendant made an appropriate postallocution motion (see People v. Royce, 122 A.D.3d 1008, 1009, 995 N.Y.S.2d 417 [2014] ; People v. Smith, 49 A.D.3d 1032, 1033, 853 N.Y.S.2d 440 [2008], lv. denied 10 N.Y.3d 939, 862 N.Y.S.2d 346, 892 N.E.2d 412 [2008] ). Further, after reviewing the record, we decline to exercise our interest of justice jurisdiction in light of defendant's extensive experience with the criminal justice system, the lack of any indication that he relied on the erroneous information in accepting the plea agreement and the lack of any other evidence that the plea was involuntary (see People v. Smith, 49 A.D.3d at 1033, 853 N.Y.S.2d 440 ; People v. Robles, 5 A.D.3d 180, 180–181, 772 N.Y.S.2d 516 [2004], lv. denied 2 N.Y.3d 805, 781 N.Y.S.2d 305, 814 N.E.2d 477 [2004] ; see also People v. Ortiz, 69 A.D.3d 966, 967–968, 892 N.Y.S.2d 622 [2010] ).

ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.

PETERS, P.J., EGAN JR. and LYNCH, JJ., concur.
