v
Erik Heyward, appellant.
Janet E. Sabel, New York, NY (Hannah Gladstein of counsel), for appellant.
Melinda Katz, District Attorney, Kew Gardens, NY (Johnette Traill and Sharon Y. Brodt of counsel; Jordan Miller on the memorandum), for respondent.
DECISION & ORDER
Appeals by the defendant, as limited by his motion, from four sentences of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Evelyn L. Braun, J.), all imposed February 20, 2019, upon his pleas of guilty, on the ground that the sentences were excessive.
ORDERED that the sentences are affirmed.
The defendant's valid waiver of his right to appeal precludes appellate review of his contention that the sentences imposed were excessive (see People v Sanders, 25 NY3d 337; People v Lopez, 6 NY3d 248, 255-256).
DILLON, J.P., MILLER, CONNOLLY, IANNACCI and DOWLING, JJ., concur.
