People v Carman, 2023 NY Slip Op 05511 [221 AD3d 613]

November 1, 2023

Appellate Division, Second Department

[*1]

The People of the State of New York, Respondent,

v

Peter B. Carman, Appellant.

Richard L. Herzfeld, P.C., New York, NY, for appellant.

Raymond A. Tierney, District Attorney, Riverhead, NY (Karla Lato of counsel), for respondent.

Appeal by the defendant, as limited by his motion, from a sentence of the County Court, Suffolk County (Anthony Senft, Jr., J.), imposed May 24, 2022, 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 Thomas , 34 NY3d 545 [2019]; People v Lopez , 6 NY3d 248 [2006]). 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). Barros, J.P., Chambers, Ford and Voutsinas, JJ., concur..
