DECISION & ORDER
Appeal by the defendant, as limited by his motion, from a sentence of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Michael A. Gary, J.), imposed May 25, 2017, upon his 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 his right to appeal (see People v. Moore, 140 A.D.3d 1091, 34 N.Y.S.3d 147 ). The defendant's valid waiver precludes review of his contention that the sentence was excessive (see People v. Colon, 165 A.D.3d 1163, 84 N.Y.S.3d 382 ).
BALKIN, J.P., CHAMBERS, ROMAN, MALTESE and CONNOLLY, JJ., concur.
