 (Ind. No. 2497/12)

[*1]The People of the State of New York, respondent,
vRashaud Grimes, appellant.

Jonathan Rosenberg, PLLC, Brooklyn, NY, for appellant.
Raymond A. Tierney, District Attorney, Riverhead, NY (Meaghan Powers, Marion Tang, and Glenn Green of counsel), for respondent.

DECISION & ORDER
Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the County Court, Suffolk County (Richard Ambro, J.), rendered February 9, 2016, convicting him of criminal sale of a controlled substance in the third degree, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence.
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
The defendant's contention that he was deprived of the effective assistance of counsel due to his attorney's alleged failure to properly advise him with respect to his waiver of the right to appeal, a waiver that has not been invoked against him on appeal, is without merit (see People v Baldi, 54 NY2d 137, 147).
Contrary to the defendant's further contention, the County Court was not required to advise him at the time he pleaded guilty of the ramifications of violating the terms of postrelease supervision, and the absence of such an advisement did not impair the knowing, voluntary, and intelligent nature of his plea (see People v Monk, 21 NY3d 27).
BARROS, J.P., CHAMBERS, ZAYAS and VOUTSINAS, JJ., concur.
