v
CHRISTOPHER LINDSEY, DEFENDANT-APPELLANT.
NICHOLAS B. ROBINSON, PUBLIC DEFENDER, LOCKPORT (THERESA L. PREZIOSO OF COUNSEL), FOR DEFENDANT-APPELLANT.
BRIAN D. SEAMAN, DISTRICT ATTORNEY, LOCKPORT (THOMAS H. BRANDT OF COUNSEL), FOR RESPONDENT.
Appeal from a judgment of the Niagara County Court (Matthew J. Murphy, III, J.), rendered January 26, 2021. The judgment convicted defendant upon his plea of guilty of robbery in the second degree.
It is hereby ORDERED that the judgment so appealed from is unanimously affirmed.
Memorandum: On appeal from a judgment convicting him upon his plea of guilty of robbery in the second degree (Penal Law § 160.10 [2] [b]), defendant contends that his waiver of the right to appeal is invalid and that his sentence is unduly harsh and severe. Even assuming, arguendo, that defendant's waiver of the right to appeal is invalid and therefore does not preclude our review of his challenge to the severity of his sentence (see People v Seay, 201 AD3d 1361, 1361-1362 [4th Dept 2022]), we conclude that the sentence is not unduly harsh or severe.
Entered: April 28, 2023
Ann Dillon Flynn
Clerk of the Court
