People v Brunache, 2019 NY Slip Op 07084 [176 AD3d 730]

October 2, 2019

Appellate Division, Second Department

[*1]

The People of the State of New York, Respondent,

v

Harvens Brunache, Appellant.

Paul Skip Laisure, New York, NY (Kathleen Whooley of counsel), for appellant.

Eric Gonzalez, District Attorney, Brooklyn, NY (Leonard Joblove and Jodi L. Mandel of counsel; Alexander Randazzo on the memorandum), for respondent.

Appeal by the defendant, as limited by his motion, from a sentence of the Supreme Court, Kings County (William Miller, J.), imposed January 3, 2018, 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, voluntarily, and intelligently waived his right to appeal ( see People v Sanders , 25 NY3d 337, 340 [2015]; People v Lopez , 6 NY3d 248, 256 [2006]; People v Davis , 174 AD3d 735 [2019]; People v Mendoza , 173 AD3d 1217 [2019]; People v Becerra , 171 AD3d 938 [2019]). 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 255-256). Rivera, J.P., Hinds-Radix, Brathwaite Nelson and Iannacci, JJ., concur..
