People v Quick, 2020 NY Slip Op 03546 [184 AD3d 879]

June 24, 2020

Appellate Division, Second Department

[*1]

The People of the State of New York, Respondent,

v

Malik Quick, Appellant.

Paul Skip Laisure, New York, NY (David Greenberg of counsel), for appellant.

Eric Gonzalez, District Attorney, Brooklyn, NY (Leonard Joblove and Gamaliel Marrero of counsel; Maria Torres on the memorandum), for respondent.

Appeal by the defendant, as limited by his motion, from a sentence of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Ruth E. Shillingford, J.), imposed July 25, 2018, on the ground that the sentence was excessive.

Ordered that the sentence is affirmed.

Contrary to the defendant’s contention, the record demonstrates that the defendant, who was no neophyte to the criminal justice system, knowingly, voluntarily, and intelligently waived his right to appeal ( see People v Sanders , 25 NY3d 337 [2015]; People v Glaude , 178 AD3d 729 [2019]). 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, Hinds-Radix and Christopher, JJ., concur..
