DECISION & ORDER
Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (John Hecht, J.), rendered December 15, 2016, convicting him of criminal possession of stolen property in the fifth degree, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence.
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
The defendant's appeal waiver was not valid because the record does not demonstrate that it was knowingly, voluntarily, and intelligently entered (see People v. Cassadean, 160 A.D.3d 655, 72 N.Y.S.3d 575 ). However, the defendant's contention regarding the propriety of the issuance of an order of protection, which he agreed to as part of his negotiated plea, is unpreserved for appellate review, and we decline to reach it in the exercise of our interest of justice jurisdiction.
SCHEINKMAN, P.J., BALKIN, SGROI, BRATHWAITE NELSON and CHRISTOPHER, JJ., concur.
