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

v

Giovanni Coplin, appellant.

Walter J. Storey, Goshen, NY, for appellant.

David M. Hoovler, District Attorney, Goshen, NY (Edward D. Saslaw of counsel), for respondent.

DECISION & ORDER

Appeal by the defendant, as limited by his motion, from a sentence of the County Court, Orange County (William L. DeProspo, J.), imposed August 21, 2019, upon his plea of guilty, on the ground that the sentence was excessive.

ORDERED that the sentence is affirmed.

Contrary to the defendant's contention, he knowingly, voluntarily, and intelligently waived his right to appeal (see People v Thomas, 34 NY3d 545). The defendant's valid waiver of his right to appeal precludes appellate review of his contention that the sentence imposed was excessive (see id. at 564; People v Bradshaw, 18 NY3d 257, 264-267; People v Carrera, 188 AD3d 1247).

CHAMBERS, J.P., MILLER, DUFFY, LASALLE and WOOTEN, JJ., concur.
