Opinion
*443 Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (Gregory Carro, J.), rendered September 26, 2012, convicting defendant, upon his plea of guilty, of burglary in the first degree, and sentencing him to a term of six years, unanimously affirmed.
Defendant did not preserve his challenge to his plea allocution, and we find that this claim does not come within the narrow exception to the preservation requirement (see People v Peque, 22 NY3d 168, 182 [2013]; see also People v Toxey, 86 NY2d 725 [1995]). We decline to review the claim in the interest of justice. As an alternate holding, we find that the plea was knowing, intelligent and voluntary, and that the plea allocution, when viewed as a whole and in the context of the factual allegations against defendant, did not cast doubt on defendant’s guilt of burglary.
We perceive no basis for reducing the sentence.
