 (Ind. No. 1180/16)

[*1]The People of the State of New York, respondent,
vSanto Alberto Rosa-Gomez, appellant.

Paul Skip Laisure, New York, NY (Cynthia Colt of counsel), for appellant.
Richard A. Brown, District Attorney, Kew Gardens, NY (John M. Castellano, Johnnette Traill, and Roni Piplani of counsel; Lorrie A. Zinno 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 (Barry Kron, J.), imposed February 7, 2017, upon his plea of guilty, on the ground that the sentence was excessive.
ORDERED that the sentence is affirmed.
The defendant's purported waiver of his right to appeal was invalid, as the record does not demonstrate that the defendant knowingly, voluntarily, and intelligently waived his right to appeal (see People v Bradshaw, 18 NY3d 257; People v Vinson, 161 AD3d 1109; People v Waldon, 157 AD3d 913; People v Chestnut, 142 AD3d 559; People v Whitney, 125 AD3d 795). Nevertheless, the sentence imposed was not excessive (see People v Suitte, 90 AD2d 80).
BALKIN, J.P., CHAMBERS, COHEN and BARROS, JJ., concur.
