[*1]The People of the State of New York, respondent, 
vMartin F. Garcia, appellant. (S.C.I. No. 2752/11)

Lynn W. L. Fahey, New York, NY, for appellant.
Richard A. Brown, District Attorney, Kew Gardens, NY (John M. Castellano, Johnnette Traill, and Christopher Blira-Koessler of counsel; Marina Kosmetatos on the memorandum), for respondent.

DECISION & ORDER
Appeal by the defendant, as limited by his motion, from a sentence of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Chin-Brandt, J.), imposed November 9, 2011, on the ground that the sentence was excessive.
ORDERED that the sentence is affirmed.
The defendant's waiver of his right to appeal was invalid (see People v Bradshaw, 18 NY3d 257, 265; People v Rennick, 123 AD3d 1146; People v Reyes, 121 AD3d 820; People v Coleman, 116 AD3d 708) and, thus, does not preclude review of his excessive sentence claim. However, the sentence imposed was not excessive (see People v Suitte, 90 AD2d 80).
ENG, P.J., HALL, COHEN, LASALLE and CONNOLLY, JJ., concur.
