CPL 220.30 - Generally, the entry and acceptance of a plea of guilty to part of an indictment constitutes a disposition of:

• A. The part pleaded guilty to
• B. The indictment as to charges not pleaded guilty
• C. The entire indictment
• D. A mistrial

Answer: (C)

When a defendant pleads guilty to part of an indictment and the court accepts that plea, the disposition covers the indictment as a whole. The plea is treated as resolving the entire charging instrument: the court proceeds to sentence on the counts to which the plea is entered, and the remaining counts are typically dismissed as part of the same disposition. This finalizes the case and prevents further prosecution on the other charges, which is why the overall effect is considered a disposition of the entire indictment.
