SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK
             Appellate Division, Fourth Judicial Department

1449
KA 13-01703
PRESENT: CENTRA, J.P., FAHEY, LINDLEY, SCONIERS, AND WHALEN, JJ.

THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, RESPONDENT,

                     V                               MEMORANDUM AND ORDER

RAYVON GUICE, DEFENDANT-APPELLANT.

NORMAN P. EFFMAN, PUBLIC DEFENDER, WARSAW (LEAH R. NOWOTARSKI OF
COUNSEL), FOR DEFENDANT-APPELLANT.

DONALD G. O’GEEN, DISTRICT ATTORNEY, WARSAW (MARSHALL A. KELLY OF
COUNSEL), FOR RESPONDENT.

     Appeal from a judgment of the Wyoming County Court (Mark H. Dadd,
J.), rendered July 22, 2013. The judgment convicted defendant, upon
his plea of guilty, of attempted promoting prison contraband in the
first 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 promoting prison contraband in
the first degree (Penal Law §§ 110.00, 205.25 [2]). The record
establishes that defendant knowingly, voluntarily and intelligently
waived the right to appeal (see generally People v Lopez, 6 NY3d 248,
256), and that valid waiver forecloses any challenge by defendant to
the severity of the sentence (see id. at 255; see generally People v
Lococo, 92 NY2d 825, 827; People v Hidalgo, 91 NY2d 733, 737).

Entered:   January 2, 2015                         Frances E. Cafarell
                                                   Clerk of the Court
