p. 1269The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Angel Roldan, Appellant. [991 NYS2d 900]
Appeal by the defendant, as limited by his motion, from a sentence of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Mondo, J.), imposed December 9, 2011, 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 NY3d 257 , 267 [2011]; People v Lopez, 6 NY3d 248 , 257 [2006]) and, thus, does not preclude review of his excessive sentence claim. However, contrary to the defendant’s contention, the sentence imposed was not excessive (see People v Suitte, 90 AD2d 80 [1982]).
Eng, EJ., Mastro, Hall and Roman, JJ, concur.
