BEFORE: PANELLA, J., LAZARUS, J., and STRASSBURGER, J.* JUDGMENT ORDER BY PANELLA, J. FILED NOVEMBER 05, 2015 Appellant, Michael Roman, appeals from the judgment of sentence entered April 17, 2014, in the Court of Common Pleas of Erie County. We affirm.

We assume the parties’ familiarity with the facts and procedural history of this case. In the sole issue presented, Appellant challenges the discretionary aspects of his sentence. See Appellant’s Brief, at 1.

Retired Senior Judge assigned to the Superior Court.

J-S22010-15

“[I]ssues challenging the discretionary aspects of a sentence must be raised in a post-sentence motion or by presenting the claim to the trial court during the sentencing proceedings. Absent such efforts, an objection to a discretionary aspect of a sentence is waived.” Commonwealth v. Shugars, 895 A.2d 1270, 1273-1274 (Pa. Super. 2006) (citation omitted).

Here, Appellant failed to present this claim at sentencing and failed to file a post-sentence motion after re-sentencing. Accordingly, we find the sentencing claim waived.

Judgment of sentence affirmed.
