Order, Supreme Court, New York County (Leslie Crocker Snyder, J.), entered on or about June 20, 1995, which denied defendant’s motion to vacate judgment, unanimously affirmed.

Defendant’s procedurally improper (CPL 440.10 [2] [c]) and substantively meritless (Matter of Haynes v Johnson, 165 AD2d *365406) motion to vacate his judgment of conviction was properly denied.
