MEMORANDUM:
On appeal from a judgment convicting him upon his plea of guilty of attempted robbery in the second degree (Penal Law §§ 110.00, 160.10[1] ), defendant contends that the orders of protection issued by County Court exceed the limits of the plea bargain and the durational requirements of CPL 530.13(4)(A)(i) and (ii). Defendant, however, "did not object to the orders of protection at sentencing" and thus did not preserve his contentions for our review (People v. Nieves, 2 N.Y.3d 310, 315, 778 N.Y.S.2d 751, 811 N.E.2d 13 ). We decline to exercise our power to review those contentions as a matter of discretion in the interest of justice (see CPL 470.15[3][c] ; People v. Cook, 118 A.D.3d 1499, 1500, 987 N.Y.S.2d 587, lv. denied 24 N.Y.3d 959, 996 N.Y.S.2d 219, 20 N.E.3d 999 ).Even assuming, arguendo, that defendant's valid waiver of the right to appeal does not encompass his challenge to the severity of the sentence (see People v. Franklin, 141 A.D.3d 1103, 1103, 33 N.Y.S.3d 805, lv. denied 28 N.Y.3d 929, 40 N.Y.S.3d 357, 63 N.E.3d 77 ; People v. Williams, 141 A.D.3d 1109, 1110, 33 N.Y.S.3d 924, lv. denied 28 N.Y.3d 1032, 45 N.Y.S.3d 383, 68 N.E.3d 112 ), we nevertheless reject that challenge.
It is hereby ORDERED that the judgment so appealed from is unanimously affirmed.
