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

v

Demirah Lollis, appellant. (S.C.I. No. 72865/23)

Patricia Pazner, New York, NY (Alina R. Tulloch of counsel), for appellant.

Melinda Katz, District Attorney, Kew Gardens, NY (Johnnette Traill, Charles T. Pollak, and Nancy Fitzpatrick Talcott of counsel), for respondent.

DECISION & ORDER

Appeal by the defendant, as limited by her motion, from a sentence of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Mary Bejarano, J.), imposed September 11, 2023, upon her plea of guilty, on the ground that the sentence was excessive.

ORDERED that the sentence is affirmed.

The record demonstrates that the defendant knowingly, voluntarily, and intelligently waived her right to appeal (see People v Lopez, 6 NY3d 248, 254). The defendant's valid waiver of her right to appeal precludes appellate review of her contention that the sentence imposed was excessive (see id. at 255-256).

DUFFY, J.P., CHAMBERS, FORD, TAYLOR and MCCORMACK, JJ., concur.
