DECISION ORDER
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
The defendant's plea of guilty resulted in the forfeiture of his right to appellate review of that branch of his omnibus motion which was to dismiss the indictment based upon an alleged violation of CPL 30.30 (see, People v. O'Brien, 56 N.Y.2d 1009 ;People v. Suarez, 55 N.Y.2d 940 ). Review of that issue is also precluded by the defendant's express waiver of his right to appeal which was part of his plea agreement (see, People v. Cabrera, 254 A.D.2d 366 ; People v. Grandberry, 223 A.D.2d 723 ).
Upon our review of the appropriate factors (see, People v. Taranovich, 37 N.Y.2d 442 ), we find that the defendant's constitutional right to a speedy trial was not compromised (see,People v. Robinson, 249 A.D.2d 333 ; People v. Allah, 202 A.D.2d 599 ).
