The defendant’s contention that his waiver of the right to appeal was not knowingly, voluntarily, and intelligently made is without merit (see People v Lopez, 6 NY3d 248, 256 [2006]). As the defendant correctly argues, a claim with respect to the voluntariness of a ple.a survives even a valid waiver of the right to appeal (see People v Elcine, 43 AD3d 1176, 1177 [2007]).
