People v WiIliam H., 2019 NY Slip Op 08697 [178 AD3d 729]

December 4, 2019

Appellate Division, Second Department

[*1]

The People of the State of New York, Respondent,

v

WiIliam H., Appellant.

Janet E. Sabel, New York, NY (Heidi Bota of counsel; Stephen Smith on the memorandum), for appellant.

Eric Gonzalez, District Attorney, Brooklyn, NY (Leonard Joblove and Seth M. Lieberman of counsel; Ruby D. Andrade on the memorandum), for respondent.

Appeal by the defendant, as limited by his motion, from a sentence of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Dineen Ann Riviezzo, J.), imposed October 31, 2017, 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..
