THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, Respondent, v. ALLYMILLET TORRES, Appellant.

MEMORANDUM AND ORDER

Defendant pleaded guilty to the crime of burglary in the second degree in satisfaction of a four-count indictment. Pursuant to his plea agreement, defendant waived his right to appeal and was sentenced as a second felony offender to a determinate sentence of 10 years in prison. Defendant now argues that this sentence was harsh and excessive. However, because defendant waived his right to appeal as part of a knowing, voluntary and intelligent plea of guilty, he has failed to preserve this issue for our review (see, People v. Buchanan, 236 A.D.2d 741, lv denied 89 N.Y.2d 1032). Nevertheless, were we to reach this issue, we would find no abuse of Supreme Court's discretion and no extraordinary circumstances warranting a modification in the interest of justice (see, People v. Brown, 251 A.D.2d 694, lv denied 92 N.Y.2d 1029; People v. Motter, 235 A.D.2d 582, 589, lv denied 89 N.Y.2d 1038).

ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
