Lynn W.L. Fahey, New York, N.Y. (Paul Skip Laisure of counsel), for appellant. Richard A. Brown, District Attorney, Kew Gardens, N.Y. (John M. Castellano and Laura T. Ross of counsel; Gedalia Stern on the memorandum), for respondent.
Appeal by the defendant, as limited by his motion, from a sentence of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Lasak, J.), imposed November 9, 2011, on the ground that the sentence was excessive.
ORDERED that the sentence is affirmed.
The defendant's valid waiver of his right to appeal precludes review of his contention that the sentence imposed was excessive ( see People v. Rojas, 108 A.D.3d 576, 967 N.Y.S.2d 837;People v. Shoker, 107 A.D.3d 1020, 966 N.Y.S.2d 910).
