[*1]The People of the State of New York, Respondent,

v

Donald Bowman, Defendant-Appellant.

Seymour W. James, Jr., The Legal Aid Society, New York (Harold V. Ferguson, Jr. of counsel), for appellant.

Cyrus R. Vance, Jr., District Attorney, New York (Eric Del Pozo of counsel), for respondent.

Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (James M. Burke, J.), rendered March 12, 2014, convicting defendant, upon his plea of guilty, of criminal possession of a controlled substance in the fourth degree, and sentencing him, as a second felony drug offender previously convicted of a violent felony, to a term of five years, unanimously affirmed.

We do not find that defendant made a valid waiver of his right to appeal. We have conducted an in camera review of the minutes of the examination of the confidential informant and the unredacted warrant application and find no basis for suppression.

THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER

OF THE SUPREME COURT, APPELLATE DIVISION, FIRST DEPARTMENT.
