People v. Nunez, 80 N.Y.2d 858

OPINION OF THE COURT

On review of submissions pursuant to section 500.4 of the Rules of the Court of Appeals (22 NYCRR 500.4), order affirmed. The determination that a defendant validly waived the constitutional right to remain silent resolves a mixed question of law and fact, and is not subject to further review in this Court where, as here, it is supported by evidence in the record (see, People v Harrison, 57 NY2d 470).

Concur: Chief Judge Wachtler and Judges Simons, Kaye, Titone, Hancock, Jr., and Bellacosa.
