[*1]THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, RESPONDENT,
vMICHAEL BRYANT, DEFENDANT-APPELLANT. 

DAVISON LAW OFFICE PLLC, CANANDAIGUA (MARY P. DAVISON OF COUNSEL), FOR DEFENDANT-APPELLANT.
DONALD G. O'GEEN, DISTRICT ATTORNEY, WARSAW (VINCENT A. HEMMING OF COUNSEL), FOR RESPONDENT.

	Appeal from a judgment of the Wyoming County Court (Michael M. Mohun, J.), rendered April 18, 2019. The judgment convicted defendant upon his plea of guilty of attempted assault in the second degree. 
It is hereby ORDERED that the judgment so appealed from is unanimously affirmed.
Memorandum: On appeal from a judgment convicting him upon his plea of guilty of attempted assault in the second degree (Penal Law
§§ 110.00, 120.05 [7]), defendant contends that his waiver of the right to appeal is invalid and that his sentence is unduly harsh and severe. The record establishes that the oral waiver, together with the written waiver of the right to appeal, was knowing, intelligent, and voluntary (see People v Thomas, 34 NY3d 545, 560-563 [2019]; People v Lopez, 6 NY3d 248, 256 [2006]), and that valid waiver forecloses his challenge to the severity of the sentence (see Lopez, 6 NY3d at 255; People v Hidalgo, 91 NY2d 733, 737 [1998]).
