The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v. William Johnson, Appellant.
    Argued February 12, 1974;
    decided March 27, 1974.
    
      Joseph W. Bellacosa for appellant.
    
      
      Eugene Gold, District Attorney (William I. Siegel of counsel), for respondent.
   Order affirmed in the following memorandum: Appellant, indicted for felony murder, contends only that his trial attorney misled him as to the sentence which might be imposed following a plea of guilty. Without more this affords no basis to disturb appellant’s conviction on the plea. (See People v. Johnson, 32 N Y 2d 813; People v. Withridge, 27 N Y 2d 713; People v. Scott, 10 N Y 2d 380.)

Concur: Chief Judge Breitel and Judges Jasen, Gabrielli, Jones, Wachtler, Rabin and Stevens.
