THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, Respondent, v. MICHAEL BRATTON, Appellant.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed and the matter is remitted to the County Court, Nassau County, for further proceedings pursuant to CPL 460.50 (5).

The defendant argues that the County Court could not, on its own, require him to waive his right to appellate review of a suppression ruling in exchange for a sentence commitment. We disagree. In People v Strafford ( 164 A.D.2d 898) the County Court, in accordance with its own policy, required the defendant to waive his right to appeal in exchange for the sentence commitment and this court upheld the waiver and dismissed the defendant's appeal (see, People v Strafford, supra; see also, People v Williams, 36 N.Y.2d 829, cert denied 423 U.S. 873).

We have reviewed the defendant's remaining contention and find it to be without merit (see, People v Kazepis, 101 A.D.2d 816; People v Suitte, 90 A.D.2d 80). Mangano, P.J., Kooper, Rosenblatt and O'Brien, JJ., concur.
