| The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v JohnAngelis, Appellant. |
—[*1] Richard A. Brown, District Attorney, Kew Gardens, N.Y. (John M. Castellano, DanielBresnahan, and Matthew Sweet of counsel), for respondent.
Appeal by the defendant, as limited by his motion, from two sentences of the Supreme Court,Queens County (Mullings, J.), both imposed January 19, 2011, upon his pleas of guilty, on theground that the sentences were excessive.
Ordered that the sentences are affirmed.
The defendant's purported waiver of his right to appeal was invalid (see People vCallahan, 80 NY2d 273, 283 [1992]; People v Bradshaw, 76 AD3d 566, 568-569 [2010]), and, thus,does not preclude review of his excessive sentence claims. However, the sentences imposed werenot excessive (see People v Suitte, 90 AD2d 80 [1982]). Mastro, A.P.J., Skelos,Leventhal, Austin and Cohen, JJ., concur.
