MEMORANDUM:
Defendant appeals from a judgment convicting him upon his plea of guilty of attempted burglary in the second degree (Penal Law §§ 110.00, 140.25 [2] ). Contrary to defendant's contention, his valid waiver of the right to appeal forecloses his challenge to the severity of the sentence ( see People v. Lopez, 6 N.Y.3d 248, 255, 811 N.Y.S.2d 623, 844 N.E.2d 1145;see generally People v. Lococo, 92 N.Y.2d 825, 827, 677 N.Y.S.2d 57, 699 N.E.2d 416;People v. Hidalgo, 91 N.Y.2d 733, 737, 675 N.Y.S.2d 327, 698 N.E.2d 46). Supreme Court advised defendant at the time of the waiver of the potential maximum term of incarceration, and thus the waiver encompasses defendant's present challenge to the sentence ( see Lococo, 92 N.Y.2d at 827, 677 N.Y.S.2d 57, 699 N.E.2d 416;cf. People v. Newman, 21 A.D.3d 1343, 801 N.Y.S.2d 649;People v. McLean, 302 A.D.2d 934, 753 N.Y.S.2d 799).
It is hereby ORDERED that the judgment so appealed from is unanimously affirmed. CENTRA, J.P., FAHEY, PERADOTTO, CARNI, and SCONIERS, JJ., concur.
