Head Matter:
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.

Opinion:
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.)
