Opinion
January 15, 1998
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Bronx County (Lawrence Tonetti, J.).
Defendant knowingly and voluntarily waived his right to appeal. The record demonstrates that defendant repeatedly and clearly indicated his understanding that he was waiving his right to appeal the instant judgment of conviction after trial in exchange for favorable sentences in connection with that judgment as well as his guilty plea under a second indictment ( see, People v. Mathis, 228 A.D.2d 179). The court was not required to "engage in any particular litany in order to satisfy itself" of the validity of the waiver ( People v. Callahan, 80 N.Y.2d 273, 283), and we find nothing unfair or coercive about the arrangement ( see, People v. Seaberg, 74 N.Y.2d 1, 10). In any event, defendant's other claims are unpreserved and without merit.
