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

v

Devon Powell, appellant.




Paul Skip Laisure, New York, NY (David P. Greenberg of counsel), for appellant.

Eric Gonzalez, District Attorney, Brooklyn, NY (Leonard Joblove and Joyce Slevin of counsel; Masha Simonova on the memorandum), for respondent.



DECISION & ORDER

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (James P. Sullivan, J.), rendered July 15, 2016, convicting him of burglary in the second degree, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence.

ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant's purported waiver of his right to appeal was invalid (see People v Bradshaw, 18 NY3d 257, 265; People v Rennick, 123 AD3d 1146; People v Reyes, 121 AD3d 820; People v Coleman, 116 AD3d 708) 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). The defendant's contention that certain orders of protection, which were issued upon his conviction, should be vacated, is unpreserved for appellate review (see CPL 470.05[2]; People v Nieves, 2 NY3d 310, 316-318; People v Mitchell, 142 AD3d 1185; People v O'Connor, 136 AD3d 945), and we decline to reach the issue in the exercise of our interest of justice jurisdiction.

SCHEINKMAN, P.J., RIVERA, AUSTIN, COHEN and BARROS, JJ., concur.
