People v Maddox, 2019 NY Slip Op 07610 [176 AD3d 1104]

October 23, 2019

Appellate Division, Second Department

[*1]

The People of the State of New York, Respondent,

v

Tyrone Q. Maddox, Appellant.

Janet E. Sabel, New York, NY (Allen Fallek) for appellant.

John M. Ryan, Acting District Attorney, Kew Gardens, NY (John M. Castellano, Johnnette Traill, and Jonathan K. Yi of counsel; Conor Ward on the memorandum), for respondent.

Appeal by the defendant, as limited by his motion, from a sentence of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Stephen A. Knopf, J.), imposed January 11, 2018, upon his plea of guilty, on the ground that the sentence was excessive.

Ordered that the sentence is affirmed.

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 Sanders , 25 NY3d 337 [2015]; People v Lopez , 6 NY3d 248, 255-256 [2006]). Dillon, J.P., Austin, Roman and Christopher, JJ., concur..
