The People of the State of New York, Respondent,

v

James C. Nicholson, Appellant.

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

Emily Constant, Acting District Attorney, Riverhead, NY (Grazia DiVincenzo of counsel), for respondent.

Appeal by the defendant, as limited by his motion, from a sentence of the County Court, Suffolk County (Toomey, J.), imposed August 17, 2016, 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 review of his contention that the sentence imposed was excessive ( see People v Sanders , 25 NY3d 337 , 341 [2015]; People v Bradshaw , 18 NY3d 257 , 264 [2011]; People v Lopez , 6 NY3d 248 , 255-256 [2006]; People v Brown , 122 AD3d 133 , 136-139 [2014]).
