People v Maisonet, 2016 NY Slip Op 07679 [144 AD3d 948]

November 16, 2016

Appellate Division, Second Department

[*1]

The People of the State of New York, Respondent,

v

Danny Maisonet, Appellant.

Lynn W.L. Fahey, New York, NY (David P. Greenberg of counsel), for appellant.

Eric Gonzalez, Acting District Attorney, Brooklyn, NY (Leonard Joblove and Amy Appelbaum of counsel; Marina Dimitry on the memorandum), for respondent.

Appeal by the defendant, as limited by his motion, from a sentence of the Supreme Court, Kings County (D’Emic, J.), imposed July 22, 2015, upon his plea of guilty, on the ground that the sentence was excessive.

Ordered that the sentence is affirmed.

The defendant’s purported waiver of his right to appeal was invalid ( see People v Bradshaw , 18 NY3d 257 , 267 [2011]; People v Brown , 122 AD3d 133 , 137 [2014]; People v Johnson , 109 AD3d 1004 [2013]) and, thus, does not preclude review of his excessive sentence claim. However, the sentence imposed was not excessive ( see People v Suitte , 90 AD2d 80 [1982]). Eng, P.J., Hall, Cohen, LaSalle and Connolly, JJ., concur..
