[*1]The People of the State of New York, respondent,
v Joseph Tusa, appellant.


Laurette Mulry, Riverhead, NY (Alfred J. Cicale of counsel), for appellant.
Thomas J. Spota, District Attorney, Riverhead, NY (Lauren Tan of counsel), for respondent.

DECISION & ORDER
Appeal by the defendant, as limited by his motion, from a sentence of the County Court, Suffolk County (Braslow, J.), imposed April 3, 2015, 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 precludes review of his contention that the sentence imposed was excessive (see People v Sanders, 25 NY3d 337; People v Green, 136 AD3d 1055, 1055).
ENG, P.J., BALKIN, HALL, COHEN and MALTESE, JJ., concur.

Clerk of the Court
