| The People of the State of New York,Respondent, v Tony Valerio, Appellant. |
Paul Skip Laisure, New York, NY, for appellant.
Richard A. Brown, District Attorney, Kew Gardens, NY (John M. Castellano, JohnnetteTraill, Ellen C. Abbot, and Matthew Luongo of counsel), for respondent.
Appeal by the defendant, as limited by his motion, from a sentence of the Supreme Court,Queens County (Chin-Brandt, J., at plea; Zaro, J., at sentence), imposed January 13, 2016, uponhis plea of guilty, on the ground that the sentence was excessive.
Ordered that the sentence is affirmed.
The record demonstrates that the defendant knowingly, voluntarily, and intelligently waivedhis right to appeal (see People vSanders, 25 NY3d 337, 339-342 [2015]; People v Lopez, 6 NY3d 248, 256-257 [2006]; cf. People v Brown, 122 AD3d133, 145-146 [2014]). The defendant's valid waiver of his right to appeal precludes reviewof his contention that the sentence imposed was excessive (see People v Lopez, 6 NY3dat 255-256). Eng, P.J., Balkin, Roman, Hinds-Radix and Brathwaite Nelson, JJ., concur.
