DECISION & ORDER
Appeal by the defendant, as limited by his motion, from a sentence of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Betty J. William, J.), imposed October 24, 2016, on the ground that the sentence was excessive.
ORDERED that the sentence is affirmed.
Contrary to the defendant's contention, the record demonstrates that he knowingly, voluntarily, and intelligently waived his right to appeal (see People v. Sanders , 25 N.Y.3d 337, 12 N.Y.S.3d 593, 34 N.E.3d 344 ). The defendant's valid waiver of his right to appeal precludes review of his contention that the sentence imposed was excessive (see People v. Lopez , 6 N.Y.3d 248, 811 N.Y.S.2d 623, 844 N.E.2d 1145 ).
RIVERA, J.P., SGROI, HINDS–RADIX and CHRISTOPHER, JJ., concur.
