[*1]The People of the State of New York, respondent,

v

Bypher Reid, also known as Carol Reid, appellant. (S.C.I. No. 10304/11)

Paul Skip Laisure, New York, NY (Lisa Napoli of counsel), for appellant.

John M. Ryan, Acting District Attorney, Kew Gardens, NY (John M. Castellano, Johnnette Trail, and Kathryn A.A. O'Neill of counsel), for respondent.

DECISION & ORDER

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Pauline Mullings, J.), rendered June 16, 2011, convicting him of criminal sale of a controlled substance in the third degree, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence.

ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant contends that he was denied due process because the Supreme Court failed to advise him of the immigration consequences of his plea of guilty. This contention is unpreserved for appellate review because the defendant failed to raise the issue before the Supreme Court or move to withdraw his plea despite the indication on the record that he was aware of the immigration consequences of pleading guilty (see People v Peque, 22 NY3d 168, 183; People v Stewart, 142 AD3d 629). We decline to reach the issue in the exercise of our interest of justice jurisdiction.

CHAMBERS, J.P., MALTESE, LASALLE and CONNOLLY, JJ., concur.
