People v Proano, 2019 NY Slip Op 05425 [174 AD3d 546]

July 3, 2019

Appellate Division, Second Department

[*1]

The People of the State of New York, Respondent,

v

Dennys Proano, Appellant.

Paul Skip Laisure, New York, NY (Ava C. Page of counsel), for appellant.

John M. Ryan, Acting District Attorney, Kew Gardens, NY (John M. Castellano, Johnnette Traill, and William H. Branigan of counsel; Lorrie A. Zinno on the memorandum), for respondent.

Appeal by the defendant, as limited by his motion, from a sentence of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Gene Lopez, J.), imposed August 4, 2016, upon his plea of guilty, on the ground that the sentence was excessive.

Ordered that the sentence is affirmed.

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 248 , 255 [2006]). Balkin, J.P., Chambers, Cohen, Barros and Connolly, JJ., concur..
