Head Matter:
The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Michael Gonzalez, Appellant.
(Appeal No. 1.)
[720 NYS2d 883]

Opinion:
—Judgment unanimously affirmed. Memorandum: We reject the contention of defendant that County Court erred in failing to grant him youthful offender status on his convictions of attempted burglary in the third degree (Penal Law § 110:00, 140.20) and bail jumping in the second degree (Penal Law § 215.56). Defendant failed to preserve that contention for our review by failing "to object or to move to withdraw his plea[s] on this ground" (People v Granton, 236 AD2d 624, 625, lv denied 89 NY2d 1012; see, People v Wright, 269 AD2d 829, lv denied 94 NY2d 946, 950, 954). In any event, the court did not abuse its discretion in failing to adjudicate defendant a youthful offender (see, People v Williams, 204 AD2d 1002, lv denied 83 NY2d 973). (Appeal from Judgment of Genesee County Court, Griffith, J. — Attempted Burglary, 3rd Degree.) Present — Green, J. P., Pine, Hayes, Wisner and Scudder, JJ.
