[*1]The People of the State of New York, respondent,
vAlex Othman, appellant.

Paul Skip Laisure, New York, NY (Sarah Vendzules of counsel), for appellant.
Eric Gonzalez, District Attorney, Brooklyn, NY (Leonard Joblove and Solomon Neubort of counsel; Marielle Burnett on the memorandum), for respondent.

DECISION & ORDER
Appeal by the defendant, as limited by his motion, from a sentence of the Supreme Court, Kings County (James P. Sullivan, J.), imposed on July 6, 2016, upon his plea of guilty, on the ground that the sentence imposed was excessive.
ORDERED that the sentence is affirmed.
The record demonstrates that the defendant knowingly, intelligently, and voluntarily waived his right to appeal (see People v Sanders, 25 NY3d 337, 340; People v Batista, 167 AD3d 69, 81 [Scheinkman, P.J., concurring]). The defendant's valid waiver of his right to appeal precludes appellate review of his contention that the sentence imposed was excessive (see People v Lopez, 6 NY3d 248, 261; People v Batista, 167 AD3d at 78).
BALKIN, J.P., CHAMBERS, COHEN and CONNOLLY, JJ., concur.
