People v. Pinero

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the County Court, Rockland County (Nelson, J.), rendered October 1, 2014, convicting him of criminal possession of a weapon in the third degree, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence.

The defendant’s waiver of his right to appeal was knowingly, voluntarily, and intelligently made (see People v Sanders, 25 NY3d 337 [2015]; People v Ramos, 7 NY3d 737 , 738 [2006]; People v Lopez, 6 NY3d 248 , 256 [2006]). The defendant’s valid waiver of his right to appeal forecloses appellate review of his challenge to the factual sufficiency of his plea allocution (see People v Towns, 135 AD3d 974 [2016]; People v Nash, 38 AD3d 684 [2007]).

The defendant’s remaining contentions are without merit.

Leventhal, J.P., Miller, Maltese and Duffy, JJ., concur.
