v
Thomas Weber, appellant. (Ind. Nos. 990/15, 5007/15)
Laurette D. Mulry, Riverhead, NY (Alfred J. Cicale of counsel), for appellant.
Thomas J. Spota, District Attorney, Riverhead, NY (Karla Lato of counsel), for respondent.
Eric T. Schneiderman, Attorney General, New York, NY (Alyson J. Gill and Michelle Maerov of counsel), for respondent.
DECISION & ORDER
Appeals by the defendant, as limited by his motion, from two sentences of the Supreme Court, Suffolk County (Collins, J.), both imposed March 14, 2016, upon his pleas of guilty, on the ground that the sentences were excessive.
ORDERED that the sentences are affirmed.
The defendant's purported waiver of his right to appeal was invalid (see People v Bradshaw, 13 NY3d 257, 264; People v Little, 127 AD3d 1235, 1235-1236; People v Brown, 122 AD3d 133, 141) and, thus, does not preclude review of his excessive sentence claim. However, contrary to the defendant's contention, the sentences imposed were not excessive (see People v Suitte, 90 AD2d 80).
ENG, P.J., HALL, AUSTIN, DUFFY and CONNOLLY, JJ., concur.
