[*1]The People of the State of New York, respondent,

v

David Ramos, appellant.

Lynn W. L. Fahey, New York, NY, for appellant.

Eric Gonzalez, Acting District Attorney, Brooklyn, NY (Leonard Joblove and Diane R. Eisner of counsel; Jenna Tersteegen on the brief), for respondent.

DECISION & ORDER

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Firetog, J.), rendered September 18, 2014, convicting him of manslaughter in the first degree, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence.

ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.

Under the particular circumstances of this case, the defendant validly waived his right to appeal. This precludes appellate review of his contention that the sentence imposed was excessive (see People v Lopez, 6 NY3d 248, 256-257; People v Hidalgo, 91 NY2d 733; People v Seaberg, 74 NY2d 1, 9; People v Persaud, 109 AD3d 626; cf. People v Bradshaw, 18 NY3d 257, 265-267), and also precludes the defendant from invoking this Court's interest of justice jurisdiction to obtain a reduced sentence (see People v Lopez, 6 NY3d at 255; People v Seaberg, 74 NY2d at 9-10).

CHAMBERS, J.P., ROMAN, LASALLE and BARROS, JJ., concur.
