People v. Piparo
Opinion of the Court
—Judgment, Supreme
Defendant’s waiver of his right to appeal was knowing, intelligent, and voluntary. The record establishes that defendant waived his right to appeal as a condition of the plea bargain (see, People v Aponte, 212 AD2d 157). Accordingly, review of defendant’s challenge to his sentence on the ground of excessiveness is foreclosed (People v Hidalgo, 91 NY2d 733). Moreover, were we to review the issue, we would find that the sentence is in no way excessive. Concur — Lerner, P. J., Ellerin, Andrias and Saxe, JJ.
