Head Matter:
The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Joe Johnson, Appellant.
[668 NYS2d 132]

Opinion:
—Judgment unanimously affirmed. Memorandum: By failing to move to withdraw the guilty plea or to vacate the judgment of conviction, defendant failed to preserve for our review his contention that his plea was not knowingly, intelligently and voluntarily made (see, People v Barnes, 239 AD2d 955). We decline to exercise our power to address that contention as a matter of discretion in the interest of justice (see, CPL 470.15 [6] [a]).
