DECISION & ORDERAppeal by the defendant, as limited by his motion, from a sentence of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Toni Cimino, J., at plea; Gia Morris, J., at sentence), imposed November 8, 2017, upon his plea of guilty, 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 appellate review of his contention that the sentence imposed was excessive (see People v. Bradshaw, 18 N.Y.3d 257, 264–267, 938 N.Y.S.2d 254, 961 N.E.2d 645 ; People v. Ramos, 7 N.Y.3d 737, 738, 819 N.Y.S.2d 853, 853 N.E.2d 222 ; People v. Lopez, 6 N.Y.3d 248, 255, 811 N.Y.S.2d 623, 844 N.E.2d 1145 ; People v. Stanley, 99 A.D.3d 955, 951 N.Y.S.2d 909 ).
