[*1]The People of the State of New York, respondent,

v

Malik Greenridge, appellant. (S.C.I. No. 5951/15)




Lynn W. L. Fahey, New York, NY, for appellant.

Eric Gonzalez, Acting District Attorney, Brooklyn, NY (Leonard Joblove and Diane R. Eisner of counsel; Gregory Musso on the memorandum), for respondent.



DECISION & ORDER

Appeal by the defendant, as limited by his motion, from a sentence of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Sciarrino, J.), imposed October 28, 2015, upon his plea of guilty, on the ground that the sentence was excessive.

ORDERED that the sentence is affirmed.

The defendant's purported waiver of his right to appeal was invalid (see People v Bradshaw, 18 NY2d 257; People v Brown, 122 AD3d 133) and, thus, does not preclude review of his excessive sentence claim. However, the sentence imposed was not excessive (see People v Suitte, 90 AD2d 80).

ENG, P.J., AUSTIN, ROMAN, HINDS-RADIX and DUFFY, JJ., concur.
