People v Daniels, 2019 NY Slip Op 06790 [175 AD3d 1551]

September 25, 2019

Appellate Division, Second Department

[*1]

The People of the State of New York, Respondent,

v

Todd Daniels, Appellant.

Paul Skip Laisure, New York, NY (Benjamin Welikson of counsel), for appellant.

Eric Gonzalez, District Attorney, Brooklyn, NY (Leonard Joblove, Jodi L. Mandel, and Daniel Berman of counsel), for respondent.

Appeal by the defendant, as limited by his motion, from a sentence of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Vincent Del Guidice, J.), imposed November 8, 2017, upon his plea of guilty, on the ground that the sentence was excessive.

Ordered that the sentence is affirmed.

Contrary to the defendant’s contention, the record demonstrates that he knowingly, voluntarily, and intelligently waived his right to appeal ( see People v Sanders , 25 NY3d 337 [2015]). 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 [2006]). Dillon, J.P., Austin, Roman, Maltese and Christopher, JJ., concur..
