v
Christopher Brooks, appellant.
Paul Skip Laisure, New York, NY (Kathleen Whooley of counsel), for appellant, and appellant pro se.
Eric Gonzalez, District Attorney, Brooklyn, NY (Leonard Joblove and Gamaliel Marrero of counsel; Isaac Belenkiy on the memorandum), for respondent.
DECISION & ORDER
Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Matthew J. D'Emic, J.), rendered January 28, 2019, convicting him of attempted assault in the second degree, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence.
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
The defendant's contention, in his pro se supplemental brief, that his attorney rendered ineffective assistance of counsel by failing to seek the suppression of video evidence is not properly before this Court, since, by pleading guilty, the defendant forfeited appellate review of his claims of ineffective assistance of counsel that did not directly involve the plea negotiation process and sentence (see People v Fields, 178 AD3d 847, 848; People v McTerrell, 174 AD3d 648, 649).
Furthermore, the sentence imposed was not excessive (see People v Suitte, 90 AD2d 80).
AUSTIN, J.P., DUFFY, IANNACCI and WOOTEN, JJ., concur.
