The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Lawrence Anthony McCrea, Appellant.
[720 NYS2d 882]

—Judgment unanimously affirmed. Memorandum: Defendant appeals from a judgment convicting him upon a plea of guilty of attempted assault in the first degree (Penal Law §§ 110.00, 120.10 [1]). Defendant failed to preserve for our review his contentions that he was denied his constitutional right to a speedy trial (see, People v Weeks, 272 AD2d 983 , lv denied 95 NY2d 872 ; People v Beyor, 272 AD2d 929 , 930, lv denied 95 NY2d 832 ) and that he was deprived of due process by preindictment delay (see, People v Rodriguez, 237 AD2d 634 , lv denied 89 NY2d 1099 ; People v Mike, 212 AD2d 999 , 1000, lv

denied 86 NY2d 738 ), and we decline to exercise our power to review those contentions as a matter of discretion in the interest of justice (see, CPL 470.15 [6] [a]). The sentence is neither unduly harsh nor severe. (Appeal from Judgment of Cayuga County Court, Corning, J. — Attempted Assault, 1st Degree.) Present — Green, J.
