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

v

Ronald Taylor, appellant.




Seymour W. James, Jr., New York, NY (Eve Kessler of counsel), for appellant.

Eric Gonzalez, District Attorney, Brooklyn, NY (Leonard Joblove and Victor Barall of counsel; Robert Ho 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 (Betty J. Williams, J.), imposed February 2, 2016, upon his plea of guilty, on the ground that the sentence was excessive.

ORDERED that the sentence is affirmed.

The defendant's valid waiver of his right to appeal (see People v Sanders, 25 NY3d 337; People v Ramos, 7 NY3d 737), which included both an oral and a written waiver (see People v Bryant, 28 NY3d 1094), precludes appellate review of his contention that the sentence was excessive (see People v Seaberg, 74 NY2d 1, 9; People v Munoz, 154 AD3d 881).

DILLON, J.P., SGROI, HINDS-RADIX, BRATHWAITE NELSON and IANNACCI, JJ., concur.
