Opinion
Appeal by the defendant, as limited by his motion, from a sentence of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Chun, J.), imposed March 18, 2013, on the ground that the sentence was excessive.
ORDERED that the sentence is affirmed.
The defendant's waiver of his right to appeal was invalid (see People v. Bradshaw, 18 N.Y.3d 257, 265, 938 N.Y.S.2d 254, 961 N.E.2d 645 ) and, thus, does not preclude review of his excessive sentence claim. However, the sentence imposed was not excessive (People v. Suitte, 90 A.D.2d 80, 455 N.Y.S.2d 675 ).
ENG, P.J., RIVERA, HALL, HINDS–RADIX and BARROS, JJ., concur.
