(Ind. No. 1917/15)

Paul Skip Laisure, New York, NY (A. Alexander Donn of counsel), for appellant.

John M. Ryan, Acting District Attorney, Kew Gardens, NY (John M. Castellano, Johnnette Traill, and Christopher Blira-Koessler of counsel; Bijan J. Torabi on the memorandum), for respondent.

DECISION & ORDER

Appeal by the defendant, as limited by his motion, from a sentence of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Stephen A. Knopf, J.), imposed May 26, 2016, upon his plea of guilty, on the ground that the sentence was excessive.

ORDERED that the sentence is affirmed.

The record demonstrates that the defendant knowingly, intelligently, and voluntarily waived his right to appeal (see People v Bryant, 28 NY3d 1094, 1095-1096; People v Lopez, 6 NY3d 248, 256-257; People v Tacuri, 163 AD3d 593). The defendant's valid waiver of his right to appeal precludes appellate review of his contention that the sentence imposed was excessive (see People v Lopez, 6 NY3d at 256).

DILLON, J.P., AUSTIN, ROMAN and CHRISTOPHER, JJ., concur.
