Opinion
The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Lenox Ramsay, Appellant.
[990 NYS2d 891]
[MAJORITY]
Appeals by the defendant, as limited by his motion, from two sentences of the Supreme Court, Kings County (D’Emic, J.), both imposed July 19, 2010, on the ground that the sentences were excessive.
Ordered that the sentences are affirmed.
The defendant’s purported waiver of his right to appeal was invalid (see People v Bradshaw, 18 NY3d 257, 265 [2011]; People v DeSimone, 80 NY2d 273, 283 [1992]) and, thus, does not preclude review of his excessive sentence claim. However, contrary to the defendant’s contention, the sentences imposed were not excessive (see People v Suitte, 90 AD2d 80 [1982]).
Eng, PJ., Skelos, Leventhal, Roman and Duffy, JJ., concur.
