 (Ind. No. 123/10)

[*1]The People of the State of New York, respondent, 
vGabriel Adrian Lopez-Perez, appellant.

Fahringer & Dubno, New York, N.Y. (Herald Price Fahringer, Erica T. Dubno, and Nicole Neckles of counsel), for appellant.
William V. Grady, District Attorney, Poughkeepsie, N.Y. (Kirsten A. Rappleyea of counsel), for respondent.

DECISION & ORDER
Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the County Court, Dutchess County (Greller, J.), rendered September 21, 2011, convicting him of murder in the second degree and aggravated criminal contempt, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence.
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
Since the defendant's application to withdraw his plea of guilty was patently insufficient on its face, the County Court providently exercised its discretion in summarily denying it (see People v Mitchell, 21 NY3d 964, 967; People v McGuire, 122 AD3d 947, 948). Contrary to the defendant's contention, the defendant's attorney did not take a position adverse to that of the defendant with respect to the application (cf. People v Mitchell, 21 NY3d at 967; People v Barr, 116 AD3d 1061, 1061-1062).
RIVERA, J.P., ROMAN, SGROI and DUFFY, JJ., concur.
