[*1]The People of the State of New York, respondent,
vMichael Pettiford, appellant.

Jeffrey Scaggs, White Plains, NY, for appellant.
Anthony A. Scarpino, Jr., District Attorney, White Plains, NY (William C. Milaccio of counsel), for respondent.

DECISION & ORDER
Appeal by the defendant, as limited by his motion, from a sentence of the Supreme Court, Westchester County (Barry E. Warhit, J.), imposed May 23, 2018, on the ground that the sentence was excessive.
ORDERED that the sentence is affirmed.
The record demonstrates that the defendant knowingly, voluntarily, and intelligently waived his right to appeal (see People v Sanders, 25 NY3d 337, 339-342; People v Lopez, 6 NY3d 248, 256-257). The defendant's valid waiver of his right to appeal precludes appellate review of his contentions that the Supreme Court improvidently exercised its discretion in declining to grant him youthful offender treatment, and that the sentence imposed was excessive (see People v Pacherille, 25 NY3d 1021, 1024; People v Moronta, 178 AD3d 955; People v Lafontant, 160 AD3d 662).
DILLON, J.P., AUSTIN, ROMAN, HINDS-RADIX and CHRISTOPHER, JJ., concur.
