 (Ind. No. 1152/20)

[*1]The People of the State of New York, respondent,
vAndre Riddel, appellant.

Patricia Pazner, New York, NY (Anna Jouravleva of counsel), for appellant.
Eric Gonzalez, District Attorney, Brooklyn, NY (Leonard Joblove and Avshalom Yotam of counsel; Lauren Slattery on the memorandum), for respondent.

DECISION & ORDER
Appeal by the defendant, as limited by his motion, from a sentence of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Heidi C. Cesare, J.), imposed July 7, 2022, upon his plea of guilty, on the ground that the sentence was excessive.
ORDERED that the sentence is affirmed.
The record demonstrates that the defendant knowingly, voluntarily, and intelligently waived his right to appeal (see People v Thomas, 34 NY3d 545; People v Lopez, 6 NY3d 248). 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 at 255-256).
BRATHWAITE NELSON, J.P., MILLER, GENOVESI, TAYLOR and LOVE, JJ., concur.
