[*1]THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, RESPONDENT,
vOSVALDO MONTALVO-SANTIAGO, DEFENDANT-APPELLANT. 

THE LEGAL AID BUREAU OF BUFFALO, INC., BUFFALO (ROBERT L. KEMP OF COUNSEL), FOR DEFENDANT-APPELLANT.
JOHN J. FLYNN, DISTRICT ATTORNEY, BUFFALO (MINDY F. VANLEUVAN OF COUNSEL), FOR RESPONDENT. 

	Appeal from a judgment of the Erie County Court (Sheila A. DiTullio, J.), rendered April 9, 2019. The judgment convicted defendant, upon a plea of guilty, of attempted course of sexual conduct against a child in the first degree. 
It is hereby ORDERED that the judgment so appealed from is unanimously affirmed.
Memorandum: Defendant appeals from a judgment convicting him, upon his plea of guilty, of attempted course of sexual conduct against a child in the first degree (Penal Law §§ 110.00, 130.75 [1] [a]). As defendant contends and the People correctly concede, defendant did not validly waive his right to appeal (see People v Thomas, 34 NY3d 545, 565-566, cert denied — US &mdash, 140 S Ct 2634 [2020]). The sentence, however, is not unduly harsh or severe.
