[*1]THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, RESPONDENT,

v

VINCENT ALIOTTA, DEFENDANT-APPELLANT.



THE LEGAL AID BUREAU OF BUFFALO, INC., BUFFALO (BARBARA J. DAVIES OF COUNSEL), FOR DEFENDANT-APPELLANT.

JOHN J. FLYNN, DISTRICT ATTORNEY, BUFFALO (MICHAEL J. HILLERY OF COUNSEL), FOR RESPONDENT.



Appeal from a judgment of the Erie County Court (James F. Bargnesi, J.), rendered September 27, 2018. The judgment convicted defendant upon his plea of guilty of attempted robbery in the third degree.

It is hereby ORDERED that the judgment so appealed from is unanimously affirmed.

Memorandum: Defendant appeals from a judgment convicting him upon his plea of guilty of attempted robbery in the third degree (Penal Law §§ 110.00, 160.05). Even assuming, arguendo, that defendant's waiver of the right to appeal is invalid and thus does not preclude our review of his challenge to the amount of the fine imposed as part of his sentence (see generally People v Goins, 191 AD3d 1399, 1399 [4th Dept 2021], lv denied 36 NY3d 1120 [2021]), we nevertheless conclude that defendant's challenge lacks merit.

Entered: July 16, 2021

Mark W. Bennett

Clerk of the Court
