Head Matter:
The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Asad R. Hixon, Appellant.
[29 NYS3d 216]

Opinion:
Appeal from a judgment of the Niagara County Court (Sara S. Farkas, J.), rendered September 17, 2014. The judgment convicted defendant, upon his plea of guilty, of attempted criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree.
It is hereby ordered that the judgment so appealed from is unanimously affirmed.
Memorandum: Defendant appeals from a judgment convicting him upon his plea of guilty of attempted criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree (Penal Law § 110.00, 265.03 [3]). The record establishes that defendant knowingly, voluntarily, and intelligently waived his right to appeal (see generally People v Lopez, 6 NY3d 248, 256 [2006]), and his challenge to the severity of the sentence is encompassed by that valid waiver (see People v Lococo, 92 NY2d 825, 827 [1998]; People v Hidalgo, 91 NY2d 733, 737 [1998]).
Present — Centra, J.P., Peradotto, Carni, Curran and Troutman, JJ.
