Appeal from Judgment of Supreme Court, Erie County, Forma, J. — Attempted Murder; 2nd Degree.

Present — Denman, P. J., Green, Pine, Scudder and Balio, JJ.


Judgment unanimously affirmed. Memorandum: Although defendant did not explicitly waive his right to challenge the sentence on appeal, his general unrestricted waiver of the right to appeal during the plea colloquy encompassed his right to challenge the sentence as unduly harsh or severe (see, People v. Hidalgo, 91 N.Y.2d 733, 737) and the denial of a youthful offender adjudication (see, People v. Hines, 261 A.D.2d 959 [decided herewith]; People v. Wagoner, 234 A.D.2d 831).
