Appellate Division, Second Department

[*1]

The People of the State of New York, Respondent,

v

Dechean V. Rankine, Appellant.

Philip H. Schnabel, Chester, NY, for appellant.

David M. Hoovler, District Attorney, Middletown, NY (Elizabeth L. Schulz of counsel), for respondent.

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the County Court, Orange County (Freehill, J.), rendered June 6, 2016, convicting him of criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant’s valid waiver of his right to appeal ( see People v Sanders , 25 NY3d 337 , 341-342 [2015]; People v Ramos , 7 NY3d 737 [2006]; People v Muniz , 91 NY2d 570, 575 [1998]) precludes appellate review of his contention that the sentence imposed was excessive ( see People v Seaberg , 74 NY2d 1, 9 [1989]). Rivera, J.P., Chambers, Maltese and Barros, JJ., concur..
