14-019. THE PEOPLE, res, v. DELVIN LAY, def-app — Judgment of conviction (Joseph J. Dawson, J.), rendered April 2, 2013, affirmed.

Defendant’s guilty plea was knowing, intelligent and voluntary (see People v. Conceicao, 26 NY3d 375, 382 [2015]; People v. Sougou, 26 NY3d 1052, 1054-1055 [2015]). The record included a thorough and lengthy plea colloquy in which defendant, among other things, waived prosecution by information and formal allocution; admitted his guilt; stated that he was pleading guilty of his own free will; that he had consulted with his attorney about the “rights he was giving up”; that he needed no additional time for consultation with his lawyer; and that he understood that he was giving up his “right to a trial by jury.” Thus, the record as a whole establishes defendant’s understanding and waiver of his constitutional rights (see Boykin v. Alabama, 395 US 238 [1969]), despite the absence of a full enumeration of all the rights waived during the course of the allocution (see People v. Sougou, 26 NY3d at 1054; People v. Simmons, 138 AD3d 520 [2016], lv denied 27 NY3d 1139 [2016]).
