People v Jean, 2018 NY Slip Op 06764 [165 AD3d 837]

October 10, 2018

Appellate Division, Second Department

[*1]

The People of the State of New York, Respondent,

v

Alain K. Jean, Also Known as AJ, Also Known as Bullet, Appellant.

Laurette D. Mulry, Riverhead, NY (Alfred J. Cicale of counsel), for appellant.

Timothy D. Sini, District Attorney, Riverhead, NY (Edward A. Bannan of counsel), for respondent.

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the County Court, Suffolk County (Timothy P. Mazzei, J.), rendered February 27, 2017, convicting him of assault in the first degree, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The record demonstrates that the defendant knowingly, voluntarily, and intelligently waived his right to appeal ( see People v Sanders , 25 NY3d 337 , 339-342 [2015]; People v Lopez , 6 NY3d 248 , 256-257 [2006]). The defendant’s valid waiver of the right to appeal precludes review of his contention that the sentence imposed was excessive ( see People v Bradshaw , 18 NY3d 257 , 264-267 [2011]; People v Lopez , 6 NY3d at 255-256). Scheinkman, P.J., Balkin, Sgroi and LaSalle, JJ., concur..
