| The People of the State of New York,Respondent, v Jaichan Jagroo, Appellant. |
Lynn W.L. Fahey, New York, N.Y. (Paul Skip Laisure of counsel), forappellant.
Richard A. Brown, District Attorney, Kew Gardens, N.Y. (John M. Castellano,Johnnette Traill, and Merri Turk Lasky of counsel; Raymond Huynh on thememorandum), for respondent.
Appeal by the defendant, as limited by his motion, from a sentence of the SupremeCourt, Queens County (Holder, J.), imposed May 23, 2012, upon his conviction ofburglary in the first degree, upon his plea of guilty, on the ground that the sentence wasexcessive.
Ordered that the sentence is affirmed.
The defendant's purported waiver of the right to appeal was invalid (see People v Bradshaw, 18NY3d 257, 265 [2011]; People v Lopez, 6 NY3d 248, 256-257 [2006]; People v Brown, 122 AD3d133 [2014]) and, thus, does not preclude review of his excessive sentence claim.However, the sentence imposed was not excessive (see People v Suitte, 90 AD2d80 [1982]). Eng, P.J., Mastro, Hall, Miller and LaSalle, JJ., concur.
